Hi Chris,

Just use a <collection> element with no field="..." attribute for this. That's telling JiBX you want to use the context object as a collection.

2) Is there a recommended best-practices way to handle hierarchies of collections in JiBX? I've found a few mentions in


Turned up a new little challenge. Some of our data structures are themselves collections, rather than containing collections. That is, we have:
class DataList extends ArrayList { ... }
rather than
class DataList {
 private ArrayList contents;
}

Which means the example bindings:
<mapping name="blah" class="Blah">
 <collection field="contentsList" item-type="contentsItem"/>
</mapping>

will not work for us. Is there a way around this? I can't see a way to make a collection a top-level root element.

Thanks,
Chris
