Unable to cast from cursor.getObject to type generated from schema.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: XMLBEANS-161
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-161
     Project: XMLBeans
        Type: Bug
  Components: Cursor  
    Versions: Version 2 Beta 1    
    Reporter: Steve Traut
 Attachments: TestCode.zip

When retrieving XML using cursor.getObject, it appears not possible to cast the 
returned XML to a specific schema type even when the XML conforms to the 
schema. The following snippet attempts to retrieve elements using XPath, use a 
cursor to reach a returned element's parent, then cast the parent XML to a 
schema type. But the cast fails.

Code attached.

        private String m_namespaceUri = 
"http://xmlbeans.apache.org/samples/any";;

        String namespaceDecl = "declare namespace any='" + m_namespaceUri
                + "'; ";
        XmlObject[] someElements = rootDoc.selectPath(namespaceDecl
                + "$this//any:stringelement");

        for (int i = 0; i < someElements.length; i++)
        {
            XmlCursor editCursor = someElements[i].newCursor();
            editCursor.toParent();
            ListOfStrings stringList = null;
            try
            {
                // Shouldn't this cast work? //

                stringList = (ListOfStrings) editCursor.getObject();
                System.out.println(stringList);
            } catch (ClassCastException cce)
            {
                continue;
            }            
        }
