There's a castor transformer in the scratchpad. What it does is either marshalling a bean to an xml-fragment in your pipeline, or unmarshalling by taking sax-events and creating a bean from that. I only needed the unmarshalling part, and it was really buggy, but I suspect that's because only the marshalling was tested. Don't know for sure though, it's scratchpad after all ;). The mapping file is reasonably simple, and it should also work without a mapping, especially for marshalling. I don't know zip about XMLBeans. From the name I would assume it is possible to use the custom transformer approach the way CastorTransformer does. Rogier
