/**
 * This class is intended to handle <array> element,
 * that is used to array creation.
 * The {@code length} attribute specifies the length of the array.
 * The {@code class} attribute specifies the elements type.
 * The {@link Object} type is used by default.
 * For example:<pre>
 * &lt;array length="10"/&gt;</pre>
 * is equivalent to {@code new Component[10]} in Java code.
 * The {@code set} and {@code get} methods,
 * as defined in the {@link java.util.List} interface,
 * can be used as if they could be applied to array instances.
 * The {@code index} attribute can thus be used with arrays.
 * For example:<pre>
 * &lt;array length="3" class="java.lang.String"&gt;
 *     &lt;void index="1"&gt;
 *         &lt;string&gt;Hello, world&lt;/string&gt;
 *     &lt;/void&gt;
 * &lt;/array&gt;</pre>
 * is equivalent to the following Java code:<pre>
 * String[] s = new String[3];
 * s[1] = "Hello, world";</pre>
 * It is possible to omit the {@code length} attribute and
 * specify the values directly, without using {@code void} tags.
 * The length of the array is equal to the number of values specified.
 * For example:<pre>
 * &lt;array id="array" class="int"&gt;
 *     &lt;int&gt;123&lt;/int&gt;
 *     &lt;int&gt;456&lt;/int&gt;
 * &lt;/array&gt;</pre>
 * is equivalent to {@code int[] array = {123, 456}} in Java code.
 * <p>The following attributes are supported:
 * <dl>
 * <dt>length
 * <dd>the array length
 * <dt>class
 * <dd>the type of object for instantiation
 * <dt>id
 * <dd>the identifier of the variable that is intended to store the result
 * </dl>
