Description David McCann

In mappings generator, we need to check for property.getType().isArray() and if so, set the container class to ArrayList.  If not an array the code should do what it does now.

The following TCK exception will be thrown in the JAXBElement array case for xml-element-refs:

Exception Description: The object [javax.xml.bind.JAXBElement[]], of class [class java.lang.String], could not be converted to [class java.lang.Class]. Ensure that the class [javax.xml.bind.JAXBElement[]] is on the CLASSPATH. You may need to use alternate API passing in the appropriate class loader as required, or setting it on the default ConversionManager Internal Exception: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: javax/xml/bind/JAXBElement[]
