Returns the information about the types allowed in this property.
In a simple case like the following, an element property only has one TypeRef that points to String and tag name "foo".
@XmlElement
String abc;
However, in a general case an element property can be heterogeneous, meaning you can put different types in it, each with a different tag name (and a few other settings.)
// list can contain String or Integer.
@XmlElements@XmlElements({
@XmlElement@XmlElement(name="a",type=String.class),
@XmlElement@XmlElement(name="b",type=Integer.class),
})
List<Object> abc;
In this case this method returns a list of two TypeRefs.
Returns:
Always non-null. Contains at least one entry. If isValueList()==true, there's always exactly one type.
