The way in which MOXy marshalls empty collections annotated with @XmlAttribute
differs from the way the Sun implementation works:

@XmlRootElement
public class TestClass {

    @XmlAttribute(name="attribute-referenced-id")
    public List<String> collection8;
    
}

class org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.JAXBContext
Null Collection:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<testClass/>
Empty Collection:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<testClass/>

class com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.JAXBContextImpl
Null Collection:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<testClass/>
Empty Collection:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<testClass attribute-referenced-id=""/>
