You always have setAccessible on anything in the reflection. Under standard security manager, you can change any private member.

Originally I did use a HashSet, and I found that POType.items
is a HashSet containing HashSet. I thought maybe there
is some cloning, so I changed the type to CopyOnWriteArraySet.
Now nowhere in my code do I instantiate a HashSet, and yet
POType items is a HashSet of CopyOnWriteArraySet. So
I'm sure this HashSet is a product of JAXB.
Logically, I'd assume JAXB performs the binding to an Items,
uses the adapter to convert it to a Set, and then calls
POType.setItems, to assign that Set to POType.items. But
the call was never made, and yet POType.items, despite
being a private field, is still instantiated (with a HashSet).
JAXB-wise, why is it like that? And JVM/JLS-wise, how can
that be possible?
