Hi Jeffrey,

I do remember that - now and then - issues have been reported related to
 unbounded choices and broken validation code. I will be having a
detailed look later on this week, but I simply do not have the time to
do this right now.

There's only one work-around I can suggest: can you - i a custom
castor.properties file - please override the following property:

# Property that allows to specify whether the validation for
# <xs:integer> should accept the old 'int/Integer' members
# as well; default to false.
#
org.exolab.castor.xml.lenient.integer.validation=true

and see whether that makes a difference ?

Regards
Werner Guttmann
