Guttmann-san,
When you filed the bug report, can I take it that you were using
the 0.9.6 code? Iow, did you ever try to run your code with CVS
code. I know that Keith and Andrew have changed a couple of small
code areas related to the use of namespaces.
I started with 0.9.6, then tried it with the HEAD branch from CVS
with the same result. I filed the bug report with CVS as of May 9.
I last updated with CVS on May 20 with no change. (I did see a lot
of updates! But nothing related.)
I found while debugging that dates need to be considered primative
types or they will not inherit the namespace from their parent. This
makes fields with type="date" act the same way as fields with
type="string", "integer", "long", etc.
While the project's xml-mapping.html page claims that type="string"
is *not* primative, the code says otherwise. I have a feeling that
this was "fixed" for string in the same way. But you committers
should know better than I. I wonder if BigDecimal, Locale, and the
arrays also handle inheriting namespaces properly. JUnit tests would
be good for all of these, too. Please feel free to extend my JUnit
test (see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR-1132 ) to include
*all* built in types, as this is an important test.
Thank you again. Take care.
