/**
 * Marks a property that refers to classes with {@link XmlElement}
 * or JAXBElement.
 *
 * 

* Compared to an element property (property with {@link XmlElement} * annotation), a reference property has a different substitution semantics. * When a sub-class is assigned to a property, an element property produces * the same tag name with @xsi:type, whereas a reference property produces * a different tag name (the tag name that's on the the sub-class.) * *

This annotation can be used with the following annotations: * {@link XmlJavaTypeAdapter}, {@link XmlElementWrapper}. * * @author
