Georg,
what does your mapping file look like right now ? How have you tried to
map A and Bs ?
Having said that, I guess this might be achievable, but I am not 100%
sure. Basically, you will have to use the container attribute (set to
false) on the class mapping for 'B', so that no <B> tags will be
rendered. Whether this will work with your additional requirement on the
aggregation by the value of the id attribute of B, not sure.

Werner
