It boils down to the previous XML being invalid...
The original XML for the files in the excel input is
```
<file>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file1.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file2.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file3.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file4.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
</file>
```
We are now generating the following xml:
```
<file>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file1.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
</file>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file2.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
</file>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file3.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
</file>
<name>${PROJECT_HOME}/datasets/file4.xlsx</name>
<filemask/>
<exclude_filemask/>
<file_required>N</file_required>
<include_subfolders>N</include_subfolders>
</file>
```
I tried matching the original output with following configuration:
```
@HopMetadataProperty(
groupKey = "file",
key = "file",
inline = true,
injectionGroupKey = "FILENAME_LINES",
injectionGroupDescription = "ExcelInput.Injection.FILENAME_LINES")
private List<EIFile> files;
```
but then the serialiser is unable to read the xml back in...
@mattcasters any idea if we can hack that format back in? Or should we
spread an upgrade notice/warning
