[eclipselink-users] XMLChoiceCollectionMappingn that maps the same xpath

[Magnus Heino <magnus@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

Is it possible to create a mapping using XMLChoiceCollectionMappingn
that maps the same xpath to different classes?

Something like:

XMLChoiceCollectionMapping references = new XMLChoiceCollectionMapping();
references.addChoiceElement("ex:exchangeObjectReference",
BuildingActivityReference.class);
references.addChoiceElement("ex:exchangeObjectReference",
TaxationUnitActivityReference.class);

where it would first try to map it as a BuildingActivityReference, if
that doesn't work, try a TaxationUnitActivityReference.

Since the addChoiceElement call stores things in a Map, I guess this
isn't supported. Or should I use some other type of mapping? Or does
anyone have any suggestions of how I could implement this myself?

Thanks!
