[Veena Rajaraman]

sorry looks like my message got truncated. sending again.
auditTrail is of type AuditTrail_list  which is declared within an 
interface like so.
public
interface HasAuditTrail{

    public class AuditTrail_list extends Vector{}......}
I have another class ABC which implements  this interface
and has an attribute auditTrail with get( returns an AuditTrail_list) and 
set methods
in my mapping file for class ABC
<class name="ABC" identity="id" key-generator=MAX">
<map-to table="ABC" />
......some fields
<field name="auditTrail" type="org.biomage.AuditAndSecurity.Audit" 
collection="vector">
<sql many-key="at_id">
</field>
</class>
i get the following exception when i try to run my code. it doesnt get past 
trying to read mapping.xml

org.exolab.castor.jdo.DatabaseNotFoundException:
Nested error: org.exolab.castor.mapping.MappingException:
The return type for method public 
org.biomage.Interface.HasAuditTrail$AuditTrail_list
org.biomage.Common.Describable.getAuditTrail() does not match the declared 
field type java.util.Vector
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Sincerely,
Veena Rajaraman
