Hi Apurva, I'm not sure what you're trying to do here. The map-as="..." attribute says to use the specified abstract mapping to represent the corresponding object. If you're using the abstract mapping there's no reason to have any child elements.
If what you want is to *add* some more values to the abstract mapping, you *can* do that - but rather than using the map-as='com.ext.ConPt" attribute on the parent <structure>, embed a <structure map-as='com.ext.ConPt"/> element within that structure. This tells JiBX to apply the abstract mapping at that point within your definition, and allows you to add other stuff before and after. - Dennis Dennis M.
