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.
