XStream behaves like Java serialization, it does completely ignore static
members - simply because these objects are not part of the serialized
instance at all.
However, you can write a custom converter for your type - you're free to do
what you want in your implementation - even saving and restoring static
fields. Have a look at the converter tutorial, it's easy.
