Ron, the feature you are looking for has already been added to SVN trunk and should be available with the latest snapshot release.
Please see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR-1956 for a detailed discussion. Regards Werner PS In general, I think that the Jira site for Castor holds a lot of useful information in addition to what most people associate with a bug tracking tool in the first place, incl. bugs, feature requests, road maps, summaries on progress, etc. Corcuera,Ron wrote: > We’ve recently tested the newest version of Castor, 1.1.1, and noticed a > difference in the way this newer version is handling the validation of > the sequence order.
