Question about custom deserializer

["Marella, Purush" <pm...@ti.com>]

I have a custom serializer and deserializer.  The serializer is working
fine, and I can see the XML for all my data.  For the deserialization
process, my onStartChild method is listed below.  I can successfully
deserialize the basic data types like String, int, boolean but am having
trouble with lists.  I have a list of "ClassPeriodImpl" objects and can hand
it off to its own deserializer, but once it is deserialized, how do I add it
back to the parent object?

 

Any help is appreciated.

    {

        QName typeQName = null;

        Deserializer deser = null;

 

        if ("name".equals(localName))

        {

            typeQName = Constants.XSD_STRING;
