Hi sweex,

it isn't possible to specify to mappings for one class in one mapping file. But why don't you use 2 different mapping files, one which maps all 3 fields of the class and the other that maps one the name. dependend on what you like to marshal/unmarshal you can use one or the other mapping file.

Regards
Ralf

Hi Werner,

I'm sorry. I don't speak english very well and probably I haven't explained
it right.

I have a class Person.java. It has, for example, 3 attributes/fields.
public class Person {
   private String name;
   private int age;
   private String country;
...
  // get/set methods
...
}


I want to define two different mappings of this class, because sometimes I
will need to map a person with its 3 fields, but other times I only will
need its "name" field. As I've read at Castor's documentation:


"
Nested class mapping

Since 0.9.5.3, the bind-xml element supports a nested class mapping, which
is often useful when needing to specify more than one mapping for a
particular class. A good example of this is when mapping
Hashtable/HashMap/Map."

I understand the example, but there is no multiple mapping for a unique
class. I don't know how can I do it!

That's it.

Thanks!!

Not sure what you are trying to achieve, to be honest. Can you please
elaborate your thoughts ?

hello!!!


My question is very simple:
How can I define more than one mapping for a particular class using
nested
class mapping?
Thanks!!
