Class Overview
Mapper that handles the special case of polymorphic enums in Java 1.5. This renames MyEnum$1 to MyEnum making it less bloaty in the XML and avoiding the need for an alias per enum value to be specified. Additionally every enum is treated automatically as immutable type and can be written as attribute.
