Jakub,
I cannot remember whether you have ever seen a reply, but with Castor it
is *not* possible to map a member of a Java class more than once.
In order to achieve what you wanted, I'd advise you to look into either
using an interface or a class hierarchy and let Castor decide how to go
about instantiating the correct classes based upon the XML content.
Regards
Werner
