/**
* Maps a class or an enum type to an XML element.
*
* Usage
*
* The @XmlRootElement annotation can be used with the following program
* elements:
*
* - a top level class
* - an enum type
*
*
* See "Package Specification" in javax.xml.bind.package javadoc for
* additional common information.
*
*
* When a top level class or an enum type is annotated with the
* @XmlRootElement annotation, then its value is represented
* as XML element in an XML document.
*
*
This annotation can be used with the following annotations:
* {@link XmlType}, {@link XmlEnum}, {@link XmlAccessorType},
* {@link XmlAccessorOrder}.
*
*
* Example 1: Associate an element with XML Schema type
*
* // Example: Code fragment
* @XmlRootElement
* class Point {
* int x;
* int y;
* Point(int _x,int _y) {x=_x;y=_y;}
* }
*
*
*
* //Example: Code fragment corresponding to XML output
* marshal( new Point(3,5), System.out);
*
*
* {@code
*
*
*
* 3
* 5
*
* }
*
* The annotation causes an global element declaration to be produced
* in the schema. The global element declaration is associated with
* the XML schema type to which the class is mapped.
*
* {@code
*
*
*
*
*
*
* }
*
*
*
* Example 2: Orthogonality to type inheritance
*
*
* An element declaration annotated on a type is not inherited by its
* derived types. The following example shows this.
*
* // Example: Code fragment
* @XmlRootElement
* class Point3D extends Point {
* int z;
* Point3D(int _x,int _y,int _z) {super(_x,_y);z=_z;}
* }
*
* //Example: Code fragment corresponding to XML output *
* marshal( new Point3D(3,5,0), System.out );
* {@code
*
*
*
*
* 3
* 5
* 0
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
* }
*
* Example 3: Associate a global element with XML Schema type
* to which the class is mapped.
*
* //Example: Code fragment
* @XmlRootElement(name="PriceElement")
* public class USPrice {
* @XmlElement
* public java.math.BigDecimal price;
* }
* {@code
*
*
*
*
*
* }
