Hi,

I am relatively new to XML and the tools available, however after lots of 
research and following some of your suggestions I am using Castor, however I 
still have a few question marks which I can't seem to find the answer for. 
Can you please help me, it's important for my final year thesis.

So Castor say:
"For Castor, a Java class has to map into an XML element. When Castor 
marshals an object, it will:

- use the mapping information, if any, to find the name of the element to 
create " etc...

I would like to know whether it is possible in castor to map the XML as in 
the following lines (1) & (2).. and more importantly how...? These XML 
documents make use of URI NameSpaces incl. 
http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema


1) <car colour = "red" type = "saloon" />

2) <xsd:element name = "id" type ="xsd:int"/>

I only found examples of mappings with closed element tags

<car colour = "red" type = "saloon" >
  <>
</>
</car>  <-- closing tag

Can Castor be used to create XML documents from Java by marshalling using 
Other URI Namespaces...such as http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/?

Any help is appreciated
Tnks a lot
Michelle
