Gopinath thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunately I had already tried
this and it seems that the bind doesn't have the effect of nesting all
of the list elements within a "parent" list element, which is what I'm
trying to achieve, instead it renames the list elements to whatever is
specified as the bind-xml name.
Maybe someone can point me to an example mapping.xml in which there is a
mapping for a class which includes a list member?

Hi James,
Please use bind tag within the field tag.
<field ...>
<bind-xml name="my-list" />
</field>
Thanks

I am trying to map a List but have yet to work out the correct Castor
mapping. When I let Castor auto-complete the class which contains the
List I get all of the elements of the list at the same level. For
example if my object contains a List of two elements I will get XML
which looks like the following:
<my-object>
<list-element>
<element-field/>
</list-element>
<list-element>
<element-field/>
</list-element>
</my-object>
Instead I am trying to get XML which looks like this:
<my-object>
<my-list>
<list-element>
<element-field/>
</list-element>
<list-element>
<element-field/>
</list-element>
</my-list>
</my-object>
I have tried using a mapping.xml with the following entry:
<class name="MyObject"
auto-complete="true">
<!--
<field name="myList"
collection="arraylist"
type="MyListClass"/>
-->
</class>
I get the first example XML whether or not I use the <field>
element in
the <class> mapping element above.
The List member of the class I'm mapping is actually a List<E>, in
that
it is a List of objects of a class which is also mapped in the
mapping.xml. Maybe Castor doesn't yet support generics, but I haven't
seen anything to that effect in the documentation.
Can someone steer me in the right direction? Thanks in advance
for any
suggestions!
