Hello,
I was trying to map an XML file with multiple collections that must mapped as implicit collections.

I would like to map them using Java 5 annotations, but at the class level I can use a single @XStreamImplicitCollection having a single String parameter for the collection. Don't know if I missed something, or if I'm using the wrong approach. Please let me know if I'm in the latter case.

At present, for having things working, I modified XStreamImplicitCollection.java and Annotation.java sources for having an array of parameters. So I can map multiple collection writing the following code:

@XStreamAlias("Widget")
@XStreamImplicitCollection({"properties", "containers"})
public class Widget {
private String Name;
private List<Property> properties = new ArrayList<Property>();
private List<Container> containers = new ArrayList<Container>();
}

I attached the modified sources and the diff file. Hope this can help.
