OpenSAML user discussion

Hi,

I just had something come up while unmarshalling openSAML2 metadata 
which I hadn't noticed it before. It seems like although the 
<AttributeValues> get unmarshalled without problems using the default 
unmarshaller (no errors are logged), when I try to read them using the 
getAtributeValues() method of <Attribute>, the result is null; no 
elements in the list.
Here is the corresponding test code:

               for(int j=0; j<idpDescr.getAttributes().size(); j++){
                   String fname = 
idpDescr.getAttributes().get(j).getFriendlyName();
                   System.out.println(fname);
                   List<XMLObject> attrValList = 
idpDescr.getAttributes().get(j).getAttributeValues();
                   System.out.println(attrValList.size());
              }
to which I get the name of the attributes in my document, followed by 0 
- as in no elements in the AttributeValues list (although there are some 
in the provided document).
Any idea what this could be about?

Oh,  well...  now I've just checked out the last revisions fo openSAML2 
qnd XMLTooling and they don't compile anymore, there seem to be errors 
like: Unable to configure OpenSAML: 
org.opensaml.xml.ConfigurationException: Unable to create instance of 
builder class org.opensaml.xml.schema.impl.XSStringBuilder for object 
provider {http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema}string. Apparentley connected 
to the AtributeValues as well. Is this part still in construction?
Thanks.

Best regards,
Manuela
