Thank you for your response.

I had hoped that I could drop in castor 1.1.1 without hassling with any
existing castor.properties files or ant build procedures.  I found that
the entry point name had changed to
org.exolab.castor.builder.SourceGeneratorMain, and so made that change
to something like:

<java classname="org.exolab.castor.builder.SourceGeneratorMain"
fork="Yes" dir="." failonerror="true">
  <arg line="-dest src -i codegen/cmi-classes.xsd -f -verbose -types j2
-package com.syntegra.cmi.interfaces />

Then I got the warnViaConsoleDialog errors, and after poking around a
number of sites, eventually concluded based on the sketchy information I
found that perhaps I could just add a new option to the command line.
Ergo, something like:

<java classname="org.exolab.castor.builder.SourceGeneratorMain"
fork="Yes" dir="." failonerror="true">
  <arg line="-dest src -i codegen/cmi-classes.xsd -f -verbose -types j2
-package com.syntegra.cmi.interfaces -nameConflictStrategy
informViaLog/>

When the warnViaConsoleDialog errors persisted, I tried modifying the
castor.properties file, first adding 
  org.exolab.castor.builder.automaticConflictResolution=true
then trying
  org.exolab.castor.builder.nameConflictStrategy=warnViaConsoleDialog
then trying
  org.exolab.castor.builder.nameConflictStrategy=informViaLog

But there was no change to the warnViaConsoleDialog errors.

I had not seen it, and even if I had, I would have figured I could just
expand the current command line args that were in use (which is what I
did) as noted above. So I have just now tried defining the following per
your note (and the above url):

        <target name="codegen-cmi" description="generates classes from
xml">
            <taskdef name="castor-srcgen"
classname="org.castor.anttask.CastorCodeGenTask">
                <classpath refid="castor.srcgen.class.path" />
            </taskdef>
            <castor-srcgen file="codegen/cmi-classes.xsd"
                           todir="src"
                           package="com.syntegra.cmi.interfaces"
                           types="j2"
                           warnings="true"
                                 verbose="true"/>
        </target>

and still get an error:

[castor-srcgen] Jun 14, 2007 5:02:13 PM
org.exolab.castor.builder.conflictresolution.ClassNameCRStrategyRegistry
getClassNameConflictResolutionStrategy
[castor-srcgen] SEVERE: The ClassNameConflictResolutionStrategy
'warnViaConsoleDialog' does not exist in the Castor builder properties
file and is therefore not supported.

So it seems like no essential difference from the command line argument
approach I had originally used.

So apparently I can't just use defaults, and I cannot change the
behavior
from the args or castorbuilder.properties file, and have to call/set
something else, such as perhaps calling setNameConflictStrategy in
org.exolab.castor.builder.SourceGenerator.  Forgive my ignorance, but
how do I do that within the above ant target/taskdef construct?

I thought I had seen org.exolab.castor.builder.nameConflictStrategies
defined in castorbuilder.properties, not
org.exolab.castor.builder.nameConflictStrategy. And the docs sure 
sounded like setting org.exolab.castor.builder.nameConflictStrategy
was a normal kind of thing to do.

Many thanks you for your response and assistance.

btw:
- on the org.exolab.castor.builder.SourceGeneratorMain" link has a bogus
trailing ".
- org.exolab.castor.builder.automaticConflictResolutionTypeSuffix=ByBy
has a redundant By?
