Description Blaise Doughan 2011-05-27 11:18:01 EDT

If an object mapped with an @XmlTransformation mapping does not have a 0-arg constructor the following exception is thrown.  MOXy should treat @XmlTransformation in the same way that it does @XmlJavaTypeAdapter.  Since the user is responsible for constructing the object themselves it should not matter what type of constructor it has.

Exception in thread "main" javax.xml.bind.JAXBException: 
Exception Description: The class blog.transformation2.FOO requires a zero argument constructor or a specified factory method.  Note that non-static inner classes do not have zero argument constructors and are not supported.
