/**
 * Binding object for the type http://www.opengis.net/gml:PolygonPropertyType.
 *
 * <p>
 *        <pre>
 *         <code>
 *  &lt;complexType name="PolygonPropertyType"&gt;
 *      &lt;annotation&gt;
 *          &lt;documentation&gt;This type is deprecated with GML 3 and shall not be used. It is included for backwards compatibility with GML 2. Use SurfacePropertyType instead.
 *  A property that has a polygon as its value domain can either be an appropriate geometry element encapsulated in an element of this type or an XLink reference to a remote geometry element (where remote includes geometry elements located elsewhere in the same document). Either the reference or the contained element must be given, but neither both nor none.&lt;/documentation&gt;
 *      &lt;/annotation&gt;
 *      &lt;sequence minOccurs="0"&gt;
 *          &lt;element ref="gml:Polygon"/&gt;
 *      &lt;/sequence&gt;
 *      &lt;attributeGroup ref="gml:AssociationAttributeGroup"&gt;
 *          &lt;annotation&gt;
 *              &lt;documentation&gt;This attribute group includes the XLink attributes (see xlinks.xsd). XLink is used in GML to reference remote resources (including those elsewhere in the same document). A simple link element can be constructed by including a specific set of XLink attributes. The XML Linking Language (XLink) is currently a Proposed Recommendation of the World Wide Web Consortium. XLink allows elements to be inserted into XML documents so as to create sophisticated links between resources; such links can be used to reference remote properties.
 *  A simple link element can be used to implement pointer functionality, and this functionality has been built into various GML 3 elements by including the gml:AssociationAttributeGroup.&lt;/documentation&gt;
 *          &lt;/annotation&gt;
 *      &lt;/attributeGroup&gt;
 *  &lt;/complexType&gt;
