Yes. You are right. Looks like this is an issue with mutivalued fields
used with location attribute.
So, I was able to make things work by declaring a dedicated class for
each element type node. That is, in the above example, declaring a
class Category for the <category> element.
So the earlier XML changed to:
---snippet---
<field name="categories" collection="arraylist"
type="mypackage.Category">
<bind-xml name="category" location="categories"/>
</field>
<class name="mypackage.Category">
<field name="label" type="string">
<bind-xml name="label" node="attribute"/>
</field>
</class>
----snippet---

Hi,
I am not actually convinced that this is an issue related to
whitespace
handling at all. I think that this is an issue in the context of
multi-valued fields when used together with locations.
Anyhow, to be able to look into this, can I please ask you create a
new
Jira issue at
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR
and attach a (minimal) working test case.
Regards
Werner

Hello Gurus,
Need your help regarding unmarshalling and whitespaces.
I spent quite some time on this issue and tried following advices in
earlier posts, but in vain.
I have the following xml:
<categories>
<category label='Male Female'/>
<category label='Sports'/>
</categories>
I try to unmarshal that using the following mappings:
<field name="columnHeaders" collection="arraylist" type="string">
<bind-xml name="label" location="categories/category"
node="attribute"/>
</field>
However the columnHeaders arrayList comes up with 3 elements ['Male',
'Female', 'Sports'] instead of just two ['Male Female','Sports']
After the creating the Unmarshaller I do make sure
preserveWhitespace
is set to 'true'
unmarshaller = context.createUnmarshaller();
unmarshaller.setWhitespacePreserve(true);
But this does not help.
I also tried adding "xml:space='preserve'" in the <category> node
above.
No luck.
I am running out of ideas. Some one please guide.
I am using castor 1.3
Thanks.
Mihir.
