JAXB representation of an Xml Element.

* *

This class represents information about an Xml Element from both the element * declaration within a schema and the element instance value within an xml document * with the following properties *

* *

The {@code declaredType} and {@code scope} property are the * JAXB class binding for the xml type definition. *

* *

{@code Scope} is either {@link GlobalScope} or the Java class representing the * complex type definition containing the schema element declaration. *

* *

There is a property constraint that if {@code value} is {@code null}, * then {@code nil} must be {@code true}. The converse is not true to enable * representing a nil element with attribute(s). If {@code nil} is true, it is possible * that {@code value} is non-null so it can hold the value of the attributes * associated with a nil element. *
