JAnnotationArrayMember.annotations() is causing ClassCastException

[glassfishrobot]

JAnnotationArrayMember adds to values field annotations, which are not of type JAnnotationUse. Hence model causes ClassCastException when attempt is made to iterate this collection via JAnnotationArrayMember.annotations():

// ann represents @XmlType class-level annotation. // ClassCastException here: for (JAnnotationUse ann : ((JAnnotationArrayMember) annotation.getAnnotationMembers().get("propOrder")).annotations()) {
	...
}

I have caught this bug while working on code of jabx-xew plugin. In that line I refer #784, but the method code tries to overcome both of them.

As I mentioned in issue description, JAnnotationArrayMember violates the casting by using explicitly @SuppressWarnings("unchecked"). For example JAnnotationStringValue which is added in line 76 is not of type JAnnotationUse.

Either downgrade or mark metro2_3-exclude as this is not relevant to jaxb or metro - or perhaps easy to fix?

If xjc code model is part of JAXB, then why do you say it is not relevant?

The issue can be fixed by changing the return type from Collection to Collection in JAnnotationArrayMember#annotations().
