public interface PropertyInfo<T,C> extends AnnotationSource
All the JAXB annotations are already incorporated into the model so that the caller doesn't have to worry about reading them. For this reason, you cannot access annotations on properties directly. TODO: don't we need a visitor?

This is a convenience method for {@code parent().getName()+'#'+getName()}.
Returns: null if the property is not adapted.
For example, "foo" or "bar". Generally, a property name is different from XML, (although they are often related, as a property name is often computed from tag names / attribute names.) In fact, property names do not directly affect XML. The property name uniquely identifies a property within a class.

If the property doesn't have XmlSchemaType annotation, this method returns null.
Since a type name is a property of a Java type, not a Java property, A schema type name of a Java type should be primarily obtained by using getTypeName. This method is to correctly implement the ugly semantics of XmlSchemaType (namely when this returns non-null, it overrides the type names of all types that are in this property.)
Returns: always non-null
See Also: XmlID XmlIDREF
Returns: always non-null.
Returns: non-null read-only collection.
