Apologies for the late reply to this, I've been away from the office.
The InputSource version does in fact find the mapping file, thanks Werner.
For the record I used:
InputSource is =
new
InputSource(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("castor_mapping.xml").get
Path());
mapping.loadMapping(is);
( toAbsolutePath() seems to be a method of File not URL - so I used getPath()
instead).
Thanks
Ken

That's odd, as I'd expect that to work. If I were you, I'd switch to using an
InputSource, and initialize that InputSource with a manually resolved
resource path (just to see whether this resolves your issue).
Something along the lines ....
InputSurce is =
new
InputSource(getClass().getClassLoader().getResource("...").toAbsolutePath());
That *always* works for me, incl. app servers such as Websphere, Weblogic,
Tomcat, JBoss, et alias.
