Allow for typed arrays using optional ArrayElementType metadata tag
-------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: XDP-220
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/XDP-220
             Project: XDoclet 2 Plugins
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: actionscript
    Affects Versions: 1.0.4
            Reporter: Arron Hocking
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.0.4
         Attachments: plugin-actionscript-ArrayElementType-patch.txt

Actionscript allows the use of the [ArrayElementType("...")] metadata tag to 
specify the type of objects contained in an array.  This is useful when dealing 
with web service serialization/deserialization of RPC methods that return typed 
arrays.  Often, on deserializtion, the array just contains Object elements on 
the actionscript side, where the java side may have a typed array (i.e. 
SomeClass[]);

For instance:
Java:
public SomeClass[] getSomeClasses() { return .... }

Actionscript
[ArrayElementType("org.whatever.SomeClass")]
public var someClasses:Array;

This tells the serializer/deserializer which type of object to instantiate for 
the array elements.

I've submitted a patch that adds an xdoclet actionscript parameter 
"typed-array" that is an optional boolean property to specify that the source 
generation should add the ArrayElementType metadata tag to a given member field.
