Now I didn't know that ;-). Well, in that case, it looks Castor is not feature complete :-(. Can I ask you to please open a new Jira issue at
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR and attach all relevant files, including domain entities in use, mapping file(s), JUnit test case, etc. And if you followed the guidelines for providing us with a patch that represents the bug report, that would be appreciated.
