/**
 * The {@code JAXBContext} class provides the client's entry point to the
 * JAXB API. It provides an abstraction for managing the XML/Java binding
 * information necessary to implement the JAXB binding framework operations:
 * unmarshal, marshal and validate.
 *
 * 

A client application normally obtains new instances of this class using * one of these two styles for newInstance methods, although there are other * specialized forms of the method available: * *

    *
  • {@link #newInstance(String, ClassLoader) JAXBContext.newInstance( "com.acme.foo:com.acme.bar" )}
    * The JAXBContext instance is initialized from a list of colon * separated Java package names. Each java package contains * JAXB mapped classes, schema-derived classes and/or user annotated * classes. Additionally, the java package may contain JAXB package annotations * that must be processed. (see JLS, Section 7.4.1 "Named Packages"). *
  • *
  • {@link #newInstance(Class...) JAXBContext.newInstance( com.acme.foo.Foo.class )}
    * The JAXBContext instance is initialized with class(es) * passed as parameter(s) and classes that are statically reachable from * these class(es). See {@link #newInstance(Class...)} for details. *
  • *
* *

* The following JAXB 1.0 requirement is only required for schema to * java interface/implementation binding. It does not apply to JAXB annotated * classes. JAXB Providers must generate a {@code jaxb.properties} file in * each package containing schema derived classes. The property file must * contain a property named {@code javax.xml.bind.context.factory} whose * value is the name of the class that implements the {@code createContext} * APIs. * *

* The class supplied by the provider does not have to be assignable to * {@code javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext}, it simply has to provide a class that * implements the {@code createContext} APIs. * *

* In addition, the provider must call the * {@link DatatypeConverter#setDatatypeConverter(DatatypeConverterInterface) * DatatypeConverter.setDatatypeConverter} api prior to any client * invocations of the marshal and unmarshal methods. This is necessary to * configure the datatype converter that will be used during these operations. * * *

Unmarshalling

*

* The {@link Unmarshaller} class provides the client application the ability * to convert XML data into a tree of Java content objects. * The unmarshal method allows for * any global XML element declared in the schema to be unmarshalled as * the root of an instance document. * Additionally, the unmarshal method allows for an unrecognized root element that * has an xsi:type attribute's value that references a type definition declared in * the schema to be unmarshalled as the root of an instance document. * The {@code JAXBContext} object * allows the merging of global elements and type definitions across a set of schemas (listed * in the {@code contextPath}). Since each schema in the schema set can belong * to distinct namespaces, the unification of schemas to an unmarshalling * context must be namespace independent. This means that a client * application is able to unmarshal XML documents that are instances of * any of the schemas listed in the {@code contextPath}. For example: * *

 *      JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance( "com.acme.foo:com.acme.bar" );
 *      Unmarshaller u = jc.createUnmarshaller();
 *      FooObject fooObj = (FooObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "foo.xml" ) ); // ok
 *      BarObject barObj = (BarObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "bar.xml" ) ); // ok
 *      BazObject bazObj = (BazObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "baz.xml" ) ); // error, "com.acme.baz" not in contextPath
 * 
* *

* The client application may also generate Java content trees explicitly rather * than unmarshalling existing XML data. For all JAXB-annotated value classes, * an application can create content using constructors. * For schema-derived interface/implementation classes and for the * creation of elements that are not bound to a JAXB-annotated * class, an application needs to have access and knowledge about each of * the schema derived {@code ObjectFactory} classes that exist in each of * java packages contained in the {@code contextPath}. For each schema * derived java class, there is a static factory method that produces objects * of that type. For example, * assume that after compiling a schema, you have a package {@code com.acme.foo} * that contains a schema derived interface named {@code PurchaseOrder}. In * order to create objects of that type, the client application would use the * factory method like this: * *

 *       com.acme.foo.PurchaseOrder po =
 *           com.acme.foo.ObjectFactory.createPurchaseOrder();
 * 
* *

* Once the client application has an instance of the the schema derived object, * it can use the mutator methods to set content on it. * *

* For more information on the generated {@code ObjectFactory} classes, see * Section 4.2 Java Package of the specification. * *

* The provider must generate a class in each * package that contains all of the necessary object factory methods for that * package named ObjectFactory as well as the static * {@code newInstance( javaContentInterface )} method * *

Marshalling

*

* The {@link Marshaller} class provides the client application the ability * to convert a Java content tree back into XML data. There is no difference * between marshalling a content tree that is created manually using the factory * methods and marshalling a content tree that is the result an {@code unmarshal} * operation. Clients can marshal a java content tree back to XML data * to a {@code java.io.OutputStream} or a {@code java.io.Writer}. The * marshalling process can alternatively produce SAX2 event streams to a * registered {@code ContentHandler} or produce a DOM Node object. * Client applications have control over the output encoding as well as * whether or not to marshal the XML data as a complete document or * as a fragment. * *

* Here is a simple example that unmarshals an XML document and then marshals * it back out: * *

 *        JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance( "com.acme.foo" );
 *
 *        // unmarshal from foo.xml
 *        Unmarshaller u = jc.createUnmarshaller();
 *        FooObject fooObj = (FooObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "foo.xml" ) );
 *
 *        // marshal to System.out
 *        Marshaller m = jc.createMarshaller();
 *        m.marshal( fooObj, System.out );
 * 
* * *

Validation

*

* Validation has been changed significantly since JAXB 1.0. The {@link Validator} * class has been deprecated and made optional. This means that you are advised * not to use this class and, in fact, it may not even be available depending on * your JAXB provider. JAXB 1.0 client applications that rely on {@code Validator} * will still work properly when deployed with the JAXB 1.0 runtime system. * * In JAXB 2.0, the {@link Unmarshaller} has included convenince methods that expose * the JAXP 1.3 {@link javax.xml.validation} framework. Please refer to the * {@link Unmarshaller#setSchema(javax.xml.validation.Schema)} API for more * information. * * *

JAXB Runtime Binding Framework Compatibility

*

* The following JAXB 1.0 restriction only applies to binding schema to * interfaces/implementation classes. * Since this binding does not require a common runtime system, a JAXB * client application must not attempt to mix runtime objects ({@code JAXBContext, * Marshaller}, etc. ) from different providers. This does not * mean that the client application isn't portable, it simply means that a * client has to use a runtime system provided by the same provider that was * used to compile the schema. * * *

Discovery of JAXB implementation

*

* To create an instance of {@link JAXBContext}, one of {@code JAXBContext.newInstance(...)} methods is invoked. After * JAX-B implementation is discovered, call is delegated to appropriate provider's method {@code createContext(...)} * passing parameters from the original call. *

* JAX-B implementation discovery happens each time {@code JAXBContext.newInstance} is invoked. If there is no user * specific configuration provided, default JAX-B provider must be returned. *

* Implementation discovery consists of following steps: * *

    * *
  1. * Packages/classes explicitly passed in to the {@link #newInstance} method are processed in the order they are * specified, until {@code jaxb.properties} file is looked up in its package, by using the associated classloader — * this is {@link Class#getClassLoader() the owner class loader} for a {@link Class} argument, and for a package * the specified {@link ClassLoader}. * *

    * If such a resource is discovered, it is {@link Properties#load(InputStream) loaded} as a property file, and * the value of the {@link #JAXB_CONTEXT_FACTORY} key will be assumed to be the provider factory class. If no value * found, {@code "javax.xml.bind.context.factory"} is used as a key for backwards compatibility reasons. This class is * then loaded by the associated class loader discussed above. * *

    * This phase of the look up allows some packages to force the use of a certain JAXB implementation. * (For example, perhaps the schema compiler has generated some vendor extension in the code.) * *

    * This configuration method is deprecated. * *

  2. * If the system property {@link #JAXB_CONTEXT_FACTORY} exists, then its value is assumed to be the provider * factory class. If no such property exists, properties {@code "javax.xml.bind.context.factory"} and * {@code "javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext"} are checked too (in this order), for backwards compatibility reasons. This phase * of the look up enables per-JVM override of the JAXB implementation. * *
  3. * Provider of {@link javax.xml.bind.JAXBContextFactory} is loaded using the service-provider loading * facilities, defined by the {@link java.util.ServiceLoader} class, to attempt * to locate and load an implementation of the service using the {@linkplain * java.util.ServiceLoader#load(java.lang.Class) default loading mechanism}: the service-provider loading facility * will use the {@linkplain java.lang.Thread#getContextClassLoader() current thread's context class loader} * to attempt to load the context factory. If the context class loader is null, the * {@linkplain ClassLoader#getSystemClassLoader() system class loader} will be used. *
    * In case of {@link java.util.ServiceConfigurationError service * configuration error} a {@link javax.xml.bind.JAXBException} will be thrown. * *
  4. * Look for resource {@code /META-INF/services/javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext} using provided class loader. * Methods without class loader parameter use {@code Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader()}. * If such a resource exists, its content is assumed to be the provider factory class. * * This configuration method is deprecated. * *
  5. * Finally, if all the steps above fail, then the rest of the look up is unspecified. That said, * the recommended behavior is to simply look for some hard-coded platform default JAXB implementation. * This phase of the look up is so that Java SE can have its own JAXB implementation as the last resort. *
* *

* Once the provider factory class is discovered, context creation is delegated to one of its * {@code createContext(...)} methods. * * For backward compatibility reasons, there are two ways how to implement provider factory class: *

    *
  1. the class is implementation of {@link javax.xml.bind.JAXBContextFactory}. It must also implement no-arg * constructor. If discovered in other step then 3, new instance using no-arg constructor is created first. * After that, appropriate instance method is invoked on this instance. *
  2. the class is not implementation of interface above and then it is mandated to implement the following * static method signatures: *
     *
     * public static JAXBContext createContext(
     *                                      String contextPath,
     *                                      ClassLoader classLoader,
     *                                      Map<String,Object> properties ) throws JAXBException
     *
     * public static JAXBContext createContext(
     *                                      Class[] classes,
     *                                      Map<String,Object> properties ) throws JAXBException
     * 
    * In this scenario, appropriate static method is used instead of instance method. This approach is incompatible * with {@link java.util.ServiceLoader} so it can't be used with step 3. *
*

* There is no difference in behavior of given method {@code createContext(...)} regardless of whether it uses approach * 1 (JAXBContextFactory) or 2 (no interface, static methods). * * @apiNote * Service discovery method using resource {@code /META-INF/services/javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext} (described in step 4) * is supported only to allow backwards compatibility, it is strongly recommended to migrate to standard * {@link java.util.ServiceLoader} mechanism (described in step 3). The difference here is the resource name, which * doesn't match service's type name. *

* Also using providers implementing interface {@link JAXBContextFactory} is preferred over using ones defining * static methods, same as {@link JAXBContext#JAXB_CONTEXT_FACTORY} property is preferred over property * {@code "javax.xml.bind.context.factory"} * * @implNote * Within the last step, if Glassfish AS environment detected, its specific service loader is used to find factory class. * * @author
