Description

The class EnumSingleValueConverter could be changed to read enum im lower case format:
@XStreamAlias("protocol")
class Protocol{
@XStreamAsAttribute
TYPE type;
}

enum TYPE {
ASCII,BINARY;
}

Xml format:

I think a change is simple and very useful,needs only a toUpperCase and toLowerCase on convert method.

The values are case sensitive, it is no problem to define

enum TYPE {
  ASCII, ascii;
}

However, starting with XStream 1.3.1 you can register custom converters for enums and support such a functionality on your own, if you need it. Have a look at the EnumCustomConverterTest that actually has such an implementation.
