/**
 * Use an adapter that implements {@link XmlAdapter} for custom marshaling.
 *
 * <p> <b> Usage: </b> </p>
 *
 * <p> The {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation can be used with the
 * following program elements:
 * <ul>
 *   <li> a JavaBean property </li>
 *   <li> field </li>
 *   <li> parameter </li>
 *   <li> package </li>
 *   <li> from within {@link XmlJavaTypeAdapters} </li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p> When {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation is defined on a
 * class, it applies to all references to the class.
 * <p> When {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation is defined at the
 * package level it applies to all references from within the package
 * to {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter.type()}.
 * <p> When {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation is defined on the
 * field, property or parameter, then the annotation applies to the
 * field, property or the parameter only.
 * <p> A {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation on a field, property
 * or parameter overrides the {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation
 * associated with the class being referenced by the field, property
 * or parameter.
 * <p> A {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation on a class overrides
 * the {@code @XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotation specified at the
 * package level for that class.
 *
 * <p>This annotation can be used with the following other annotations:
 * {@link XmlElement}, {@link XmlAttribute}, {@link XmlElementRef},
 * {@link XmlElementRefs}, {@link XmlAnyElement}. This can also be
 * used at the package level with the following annotations:
 * {@link XmlAccessorType}, {@link XmlSchema}, {@link XmlSchemaType},
 * {@link XmlSchemaTypes}.
 *
 * <p><b> Example: </b> See example in {@link XmlAdapter}
