/**
 * As the name already expresses: this class is there for backward compatibility
 * and should be removed from Castor with a future release. 
 * 
 * Normally the internal context is created by XMLContext exclusivly and then handed down
 * the call chain. This very class is used in all cases, which fail to be on a call
 * chain started with {@link XMLContext}.
 * 
 * Ideally, all usage of this class should disappear and be replaced with proper
 * usage of {@link XMLContext}.
