I recieved any feedback on this.. I will take a looksee at tweaking how betwixt works and what is involved in making a .betwixt file, however, if anyone has any samples, that would be much appreciated!

However, I just added a java.util.Date object, and now betwixt is erroring when it tries to pass the String representation of the date object back in as a string. I could add a method public void setDate(String dateAsString) but that seems icky. Do I have to create a .betwixt file to deal with this? Or, should betwixt be changed to look at my String and try and convert it to a date if my only matching method signature takes a date. Alternatively to create a .betwixt file, can I do the same thing, but programatically. I don't really want to add yet another file for mapping. Loving Betwixt! Eric Pugh
