This package contains the object model that represents an in-memory binding file. The binding file allows one to customize the source generated by the Castor Source Generator.

The class XMLBindingComponent is the XML Schema driven implementation of BindingComponent and contains the logic to bind an XML Schema structure to a java property. More information may be obtained in the Castor documentation.

Much of the source in this package is itself generated using the Castor Source Generator and the schema src/main/resources/org/exolab/castor/builder/binding/binding.xsd.
