This is useful for various marshalling and serialization frameworks. The constant field has the same as the field it represents, except with all uppercase letters, with underscores in front of the uppercase letters in the original field. If this results in the exact same name, the constant is not generated (a warning is generated instead). + </p><p> + The <code>public</code> access modifier can be changed via the parameter <code>level = AccessLevel.PACKAGE</code> for example.
