I can see what you are trying to do, but Castor - by the means of a
mapping file - allows you to define one mapping per Java class only.
Having said that, this does not prevent you to define more than one Java
class that are mapped against the same XML artefacts.

If you happen to have an extension hierarchy, you should be able to get
this working, though.

Can you show me the relevant mapping fragments ?
