/**
* Maps a JavaBean property to a XML element derived from property name.
*
* Usage
*
* @XmlElement annotation can be used with the following program
* elements:
*
* - a JavaBean property
* - non static, non transient field
* - within {@link XmlElements}
*
*
*
*
* The usage is subject to the following constraints:
*
* - This annotation can be used with following annotations:
* {@link XmlID},
* {@link XmlIDREF},
* {@link XmlList},
* {@link XmlSchemaType},
* {@link XmlValue},
* {@link XmlAttachmentRef},
* {@link XmlMimeType},
* {@link XmlInlineBinaryData},
* {@link XmlElementWrapper},
* {@link XmlJavaTypeAdapter}
* - if the type of JavaBean property is a collection type of
* array, an indexed property, or a parameterized list, and
* this annotation is used with {@link XmlElements} then,
* @XmlElement.type() must be DEFAULT.class since the
* collection item type is already known.
*
*
*
* A JavaBean property, when annotated with @XmlElement annotation
* is mapped to a local element in the XML Schema complex type to
* which the containing class is mapped.
*
*
* Example 1: Map a public non static non final field to local
* element
*
* //Example: Code fragment
* public class USPrice {
* @XmlElement(name="itemprice")
* public java.math.BigDecimal price;
* }
*
* <!-- Example: Local XML Schema element -->
* <xs:complexType name="USPrice"/>
* <xs:sequence>
* <xs:element name="itemprice" type="xs:decimal" minOccurs="0"/>
* </sequence>
* </xs:complexType>
*
*
*
* Example 2: Map a field to a nillable element.
*
*
* //Example: Code fragment
* public class USPrice {
* @XmlElement(nillable=true)
* public java.math.BigDecimal price;
* }
*
* <!-- Example: Local XML Schema element -->
* <xs:complexType name="USPrice">
* <xs:sequence>
* <xs:element name="price" type="xs:decimal" nillable="true" minOccurs="0"/>
* </sequence>
* </xs:complexType>
*
*
* Example 3: Map a field to a nillable, required element.
*
*
* //Example: Code fragment
* public class USPrice {
* @XmlElement(nillable=true, required=true)
* public java.math.BigDecimal price;
* }
*
* <!-- Example: Local XML Schema element -->
* <xs:complexType name="USPrice">
* <xs:sequence>
* <xs:element name="price" type="xs:decimal" nillable="true" minOccurs="1"/>
* </sequence>
* </xs:complexType>
*
*
*
*
Example 4: Map a JavaBean property to an XML element
* with anonymous type.
*
* See Example 6 in @{@link XmlType}.
