There's an example of how to map a map in the XML FAQ section at http://www.castor.org
In addition, you'll find plenty of more advanced samples in the Castor CTF suite, our framework-internal test suite, where you'll find example for mapping nested maps, maps of collections, etc. To access these samples, you'll have to either ... - check out the current source code from our SVN repository - or download the source tarball from the download page. I hope this helps. Werner Bryan Richardson wrote: > Hello all, > > I'm a newbie to using Castor.
