I am indeed using the xs:string type.

My schema/code is not private - I'm just experimenting.

I have included the follow files:

  settings.xsd
  TrimmedString.java
  DatabaseSettingsImpl.java (excerpt)

I don't know how to attach the files to the form, and in
order to reduce the size of the text I've omitted the
generated files - however, if you can't reproduce the
problem, I'll be happy to send whatever I've got.

Thanks

Marcus
