Hello, I've got a problem mapping a class whose one of its attributes is a
java.util.List. I'm getting the following exception:
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error
creating bean with name 'xmlContext' defined in class path resource
[applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception
is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: list is not a valid

What I am trying to do is:
I want the java.util.List attribute to be mapped with a diferent name in the
xml file. For example, if the attribute is:
private List<Vehicle> vehicles;
I want this attribute to be mapped with the name "myVehicles" in the xml
file.
What I have done in the mapping file is:
<class name="MyClass" auto-complete="true">
<map-to xml="myClass"/>
<field name="vehicles"><bind-xml name="myVehicles"/></field>
</class>
Please, if anyone knows what it is happening, help.
Thanks in advance
