Hi, thanks a lot for checking that. My problem was caused by a JPA entity's lazy loading (not loaded) property. The simple example in my last mail doesn't work anyway (also tried with valueType attribute) but it is a case that really never occures. I am working on a generator so that picklists could also be declared in loops in theory. However my example with the nested lists cannot exist in a model so that everything is fine!
