| /** |
| * <p> |
| * A container for multiple @{@link XmlElement} annotations. |
| * |
| * Multiple annotations of the same type are not allowed on a program |
| * element. This annotation therefore serves as a container annotation |
| * for multiple @XmlElements as follows: |
| * |
| * <pre> |
| * @XmlElements({ @XmlElement(...),@XmlElement(...) }) |
| * </pre> |
| * |
| * <p>The {@code @XmlElements} annotation can be used with the |
| * following program elements: </p> |
| * <ul> |
| * <li> a JavaBean property </li> |
| * <li> non static, non transient field </li> |
| * </ul> |
| * |
| * This annotation is intended for annotation a JavaBean collection |
| * property (e.g. List). |
| * |
| * <p><b>Usage</b></p> |
| * |
| * <p>The usage is subject to the following constraints: |
| * <ul> |
| * <li> This annotation can be used with the following |
| * annotations: @{@link XmlIDREF}, @{@link XmlElementWrapper}. </li> |
| * <li> If @XmlIDREF is also specified on the JavaBean property, |
| * then each @XmlElement.type() must contain a JavaBean |
| * property annotated with {@code @XmlID}.</li> |
| * </ul> |
| * |
| * <p>See "Package Specification" in javax.xml.bind.package javadoc for |
| * additional common information.</p> |
