Justin,
I don't think that is an option with the XML code generator right now,
and I am not sure whether it would be easy to add such functionality.
There's two options I'd have a look at, ....
a) see whether having the generated class extend one of your classes
eases your life (this can be achieved through e.g. a binding file).
b) Drop the generated classes (domain class and descriptor class), write
your own domain class (ValidateDouble in your case), and use a mapping
file for this class (only). All other classes will be generated and have
the binding information (namespaces, artifact names, ....) defined
through the generated descriptors.
I hope this helps.
Regards
Werner
