  35  * A container for multiple @{@link XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotations.
  36  *
  37  * <p> Multiple annotations of the same type are not allowed on a program
  38  * element. This annotation therefore serves as a container annotation
  39  * for multiple &#64;XmlJavaTypeAdapter as follows:
  40  *
  41  * <pre>
  42  * &#64;XmlJavaTypeAdapters ({ @XmlJavaTypeAdapter(...),@XmlJavaTypeAdapter(...) })
  43  * </pre>
  44  *
  45  * <p>The <tt>@XmlJavaTypeAdapters</tt> annnotation is useful for
  46  * defining {@link XmlJavaTypeAdapter} annotations for different types
  47  * at the package level.
