Hi Neil, apologize for the late reply - the Digester relies on BeanUtils to perform text to Java object unmarshalling, so for your enumeration(s) type you have to plug the needed converter.
Have a look at "Data Type Conversions"[1] to understand how to convert the extracted XML body text to OneDBarcodeFormat; basically you have to implement the Converter[2] interface and register it via the ConvertUtils.html#register()[3] method. The Digester will do the rest. HTH and don't hesitate on writing back to the ML if needed!
