[-=}\\*/{=- <rui...@gm...>]

solved the problem llike this...
not as i expected but nice...

xml in/output...

            <handler>
               <Downloader ignoresExplicit="true"
package="abc.kis.handler"/>
               <KISRemote package="abc.kis.simple"/>
            </handler>

// list declaration...
@Element(name = "handler", required = false) // required is true!!!
private Handler.List handlers;

public interface Handler {

  // the base class for all handlers...
  public static abstract class Base implements Handler {

    @Attribute
    private String getPackage() {
      return this.getClass().getPackage().getName();
    }

    @Attribute
    private void setPackage(String pack) {
    }
  }

  // Array<Handler> replacement to that it is detected by the converter...
  public static class List extends ArrayList<Handler> {

    // ... its only member, the converter...
    public static class Converter extends SimpleConverter<List> {

      public static Registry bind(Registry r) {
        return bind(r, List.class, Converter.class);
      }

      @Override
      public List read(InputNode in) throws Exception {
        List alh = new List();
        for (InputNode next = in.getNext(); next != null; next =
in.getNext())
          alh.add((Handler)KeepItSimple.CAMEL_CASE_PERSISTER.read(

Class.forName(next.getAttribute("package").getValue().concat(".").
            concat(next.getName())), next));
        return alh;
      }

      @Override
      public void write(OutputNode on, List alh) throws Exception {
        for (Handler h: alh)
          KeepItSimple.CAMEL_CASE_PERSISTER.write(h, on);
      }
    }
  }
