/**

 * <p>

 * Maps a JavaBean property to a map of wildcard attributes.

 *

 * <p> <b>Usage</b> </p>

 * <p>

 * following program elements:

 * <ul>

 *   <li> JavaBean property </li>

 *   <li> non static, non transient field </li>

 * </ul>

 *

 * <p>See "Package Specification" in javax.xml.bind.package javadoc for

 * additional common information.</p>

 *

 * The usage is subject to the following constraints:

 * <ul>

 *   <li> At most one field or property in a class can be annotated

 * </ul>

 *

 * <p>

 * While processing attributes to be unmarshalled into a value class,

 * each attribute that is not statically associated with another

 * JavaBean property, via {@link XmlAttribute}, is entered into the

 * wildcard attribute map represented by

 * {@link Map}<{@link QName},{@link Object}>. The attribute QName is the

 * map's key. The key's value is the String value of the attribute.
