Class DefinitionContext

java.lang.Object
org.jibx.binding.model.DefinitionContext

public class DefinitionContext extends Object
Definition context information. This is used to track definitions of items that can be referenced by other items. The contexts are nested, so that names not found in a context may be defined by a containing context. The access methods take this into account, automatically delegating to the containing context (if defined) when a lookup fails.
