A patch for the following enhancement is ready for review:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=344338

Currently, VirtualAttributeAccessor can be used to map to a Map<String, Object>, but cannot be used for more specific object types, such as Integer, BigDecimal, QName, Employee, etc.

For example, the user may wish to store all virtual BigDecimal mappings in one data structure, and store all other virtual mappings in the default Map<String, Object>.

This patch adds a setValueType(Class value) method to VirtualAttributeAccessor to allow the configuration of the value type.
