This artifact provides a single jar that contains all classes required to use remote EJB and JMS, including
all dependencies. It is intended for use by those not using maven, maven users should just import the EJB and
JMS BOM's instead (shaded JAR's cause lots of problems with maven, as it is very easy to inadvertently end up
with different versions on classes on the class path).

/**
* Convenience base class for converters that translate the String
* representation of an array into a corresponding array of primitives
* object. This class encapsulates the functionality required to parse
* the String into a list of String elements that can later be
* individually converted to the appropriate primitive type.
*
* The input syntax accepted by the parseElements() method
* is designed to be compatible with the syntax used to initialize arrays
* in a Java source program, except that only String literal values are
* supported. For maximum flexibility, the surrounding '{' and '}'
* characters are optional, and individual elements may be separated by
* any combination of whitespace and comma characters.
