Hi Adnan, You can make JiBX unmarshalling ignore element order, but it's not automatic. You'd need to structure things so that there's an element name on every component of the group of binding definitions you want to make unordered, and make them all optional. See http://jibx.sourceforge.net/binding/tutorial/binding-extras.html#mixing and http://jibx.sourceforge.net/binding/binding-attributes.html#structure for details.
Making this work with repeated elements is messy, but possible. You need to define a method that just adds a value to the collection, then define the element in the binding as though it only occurred once, using the add method as a set-method, and use allow-repeats='true' on the containing element of the binding. That way the method gets called for each instance of the repeated element, and they all get added to the collection. This also requires that you make the binding direction="input", too (if you need to go in both directions you need to use separate bindings - the existing binding can be used for output in this case). Hope that helps, - Dennis Dennis M.
