Fetch a class resolver based on the mappings supplied: by default in CastorBaseMapping.xml; and per caller as specified in the argument. Building a resolver is a reasonably cycle consuming activity, so the method saves the resolved back onto the XMLMapping argument provided. If the caller provides an XMLMapping which already contains a resolver, that resolver is simply returned.

The expectation is that the caller will cache the instance of XMLMapping that it passes in and use it again in future calls to this method.

Parameters:

argsMappingInOut -

Returns:

A resolver for use with castor's marshaller and unmarshaller.

Throws:

org.exolab.castor.mapping.MappingException

java.io.IOException
