JDK7 changed its reflections API in order to resolve
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5041784
In short, JDK 5 and 6 (wrongly) return GenericArrayTypes in certain
reflection scenarios, whereas JDK 7 changed this to return a normal
array type. For Jaxb2Marshaller, this meant that marshaling byte arrays
was not supported under JDK 7.
This change fixes that, so that Jaxb2Marhsaller supports marshalling
byte arrays again (under JDK 5, 6 or 7).
This renaming more intuitively expresses the relationship between
subprojects and the JAR artifacts they produce.
Tracking history across these renames is possible, but it requires
use of the --follow flag to `git log`, for example
$ git log spring-aop/src/main/java/org/springframework/aop/Advisor.java
will show history up until the renaming event, where
$ git log --follow spring-aop/src/main/java/org/springframework/aop/Advisor.java
will show history for all changes to the file, before and after the
renaming.
