OK - here is something a little bizarre. 0.9.6 generates code in the descriptor class that has maxlength validation
0.9.7 and 0.9.9 do not. I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I am now missing something in my build file or my castor properties to get the same behavior out of the later releases. Any ideas?
