Hi Brian, Thanks for helping out on the users list!
Just as an improvement to your recommendation, though, since about 1.1 JiBX has supported a create-type="..." attribute for <collection> elements (along with <mapping> and <structure>, for that matter). This allows you to avoid the nuisance of factories when dealing with abstract classes or interfaces. Cheers, - Dennis Dennis M.
