I have read the tutorials before and they are very clear and well written.
What I want to do is not in these tutorials though.
The root of my problem lies in the fact that the <collection> tag has to be within a <mapping> definition, which is linked to a class.
Basically, I want to map only a MyItem[] java array in the XML file, not a MyItem, nor a MyClass.MyItem[].
So when I want to actually do my binding, I do BindingDirectory.getFactory( MyItem[] ), which I cannot get to work.
I know how to bind an array within a class, but not an array of class. Is it possible?
Thanks,
Stephane

Hi Stephane,
The tutorial section on collections gives some examples that should be
relevant: http://jibx.sourceforge.net/tutorial/binding-collects.html For
what you want, a simple binding like:
<collection field="list" name="list">
<structure name="item" type="MyItem">
<value name="field" field="field"/>
</structure>
</collection>
should do exactly what you want.
Had you looked at the binding tutorial? If this isn't clear from the
tutorial, I'd appreciate feedback on how to show it more clearly.
