Hi Tom, we are sorry but there are no better docs available yet then at:
http://castor.codehaus.org/ There is no problem asking us to help you out with information that is missing in docs. This just reminds us that there are things missing ;-) Having said that we would be happy to get doc contributions also from your side in form of a howto. If you managed to resolve a problem you had there may be others out there with similar problems. As far as i understand your OneWayOutputPage class, you offer get/setOutputList methods to the list as well as the convinience methods add/getOutput. As MappingTool is not able to know that the later ones are only to be used by your application and access the same data as the first 2 it included them in mapping. The solution is quite simple in that case, just remove the field mapping for output. The mapping should look like: <class cst:name="castortest.gamma.OneWayOutputPage"> <description> Default mapping for class castortest.gamma.OneWayOutputPage </description> <map-to cst:xml="one-way-output-page"/> <field cst:name="outputList" cst:type="java.lang.Object" cst:collection="arraylist"> <bind-xml name="output-list" node="element"/> </field> </class> Regards Ralf Thomas A Hurley schrieb: > Hi, > > I have the following class which I’ve fed into the MappingTool to generate a > mapping file.
