Hi Davide,
You can't do what you want directly, but can easily fake it for
unmarshalling with a small code change. Just define a method addItem()
to add a new item to the collection, then use the binding structure:
<binding direction="input">
<mapping name="root" class="Root" ordered="false" flexible="true"
allow-repeats="true">
<value name="tag2" field="tag2" usage="optional"/>
<structure name="item" type="Item" ordered="false"
set-method="addItem">
<value name="title" field="title" usage="optional" />
</structure>
</mapping>
</binding>
The allow-repeats="true" means JiBX will accept any number of repeats of
the elements, and it'll call the addItem() method for each instance of
<item> seen.
If you want to handle both marshalling and unmarshalling there's no easy
way to do it. You could define separate bindings, one for unmarshalling
and one for marshalling, but that can get ugly.
