Code to add to support ImplicitCollection in XStreamMarshaller

------ CODE -----
/**

• Adds an implicit Collection for the given type.

• @param name alias to be used for the type

• @param type the type to be Collection
  */
  public void addImplicitCollection(String name, Class type) {
  getXStream().addImplicitCollection(type, name);
  }

  /**

  • Set a implicit colletion/type map, consisting of string implicit collection mapped to <code>Class</code>
  • instances (or Strings to be converted to <code>Class</code> instances).
  • @see org.springframework.beans.propertyeditors.ClassEditor
    */
    public void setImplicitCollection(Map implicitCollection) {
    for (Iterator iterator = implicitCollection.entrySet().iterator(); iterator.hasNext();) {
    Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry) iterator.next();
    Class type;
    if (entry.getValue() instanceof Class) {
    type = (Class) entry.getValue();
    }
    else {
    ClassEditor editor = new ClassEditor();
    editor.setAsText(String.valueOf(entry.getValue()));
    type = (Class) editor.getValue();
    }
    addImplicitCollection((String) entry.getKey(), type);
    }
