<P>
This class together with its embedded subclasses handles conversion from Java values to XPath values.
The general principle is to allocate a specific JPConverter at compile time wherever possible. If there
is insufficient type information to make this feasible, a general-purpose JPConverter is allocated, which
in turn allocates a more specific converter at run-time to do the actual work.
