/**
*
* An implementation of the {@code BeanDeclaration} interface that is
* suitable for XML configuration files.
*
*
* This class defines the standard layout of a bean declaration in an XML
* configuration file. Such a declaration must look like the following example
* fragment:
*
*
*
*
* ...
* <personBean config-class="my.model.PersonBean"
* lastName="Doe" firstName="John">
* <address config-class="my.model.AddressBean"
* street="21st street 11" zip="1234"
* city="TestCity"/>
* </personBean>
*
*
*
*
* The bean declaration can be contained in an arbitrary element. Here it is the
* {@code personBean} element. In the attributes of this element
* there can occur some reserved attributes, which have the following meaning:
*
* - {@code config-class}
* - Here the full qualified name of the bean's class can be specified. An
* instance of this class will be created. If this attribute is not specified,
* the bean class must be provided in another way, e.g. as the
* {@code defaultClass} passed to the {@code BeanHelper} class.
* - {@code config-factory}
* - This attribute can contain the name of the
* {@link BeanFactory} that should be used for creating the bean.
* If it is defined, a factory with this name must have been registered at the
* {@code BeanHelper} class. If this attribute is missing, the default
* bean factory will be used.
* - {@code config-factoryParam}
* - With this attribute a parameter can be specified that will be passed to
* the bean factory. This may be useful for custom bean factories.
*
*
*
* All further attributes starting with the {@code config-} prefix are
* considered as meta data and will be ignored. All other attributes are treated
* as properties of the bean to be created, i.e. corresponding setter methods of
* the bean will be invoked with the values specified here.
*
*
* If the bean to be created has also some complex properties (which are itself
* beans), their values cannot be initialized from attributes. For this purpose
* nested elements can be used. The example listing shows how an address bean
* can be initialized. This is done in a nested element whose name must match
* the name of a property of the enclosing bean declaration. The format of this
* nested element is exactly the same as for the bean declaration itself, i.e.
* it can have attributes defining meta data or bean properties and even further
* nested elements for complex bean properties.
*
*
* A {@code XMLBeanDeclaration} object is usually created from a
* {@code HierarchicalConfiguration}. From this it will derive a
* {@code SubnodeConfiguration}, which is used to access the needed
* properties. This subnode configuration can be obtained using the
* {@link #getConfiguration()} method. All of its properties can
* be accessed in the usual way. To ensure that the property keys used by this
* class are understood by the configuration, the default expression engine will
* be set.
