Unfortunately, the XML format is not under my control and I don't have a schema at this point, but hopefully the company will supply one in the future. So my hands are kinda bound here on the format of the XML. Castor still seems like the way to go, but it doesn't seem to like this case very much. I am not familiar with how custom field handlers work, but I might have to try and go that route if I can't get the Mapping to work.
I am kinda surprised that nothing like this has come up before, but I couldn't find anything when searching through the archives. Any ideas?
