/**
 * <p>Transformation XML mappings are used to create a custom mapping where one or more XML nodes can 
 * be used to create the object to be stored in a Java class's attribute.  To handle the custom 
 * requirements at marshal (write) and unmarshall (read) time, a transformation mapping takes instances 
 * of org.eclipse.persistence.mappings.transformers (such as AttributeTransformer and FieldTransformer), providing 
 * a non-intrusive solution that avoids the need for domain objects to implement any 'special' interfaces.
 *
 * <p><b>Setting the XPath</b>: TopLink XML mappings make use of XPath statements to find the relevant 
 * data in an XML document.  The XPath statement is relative to the context node specified in the descriptor.
 * The XPath may contain node type, path, and positional information.  The XPath is specified on the 
 * field transformer that is set on the mapping.  The XPath is set as the first parameter of the <code>
 * addFieldTransformer</code> method.
 *
 * <p>The following XPath statements may be used to specify the location of XML data relating to an object's 
 * name attribute:
 *
 * <p><table border="1">
 * <tr>
 * <th id="c1" align="left">XPath</th>
 * <th id="c2" align="left">Description</th>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td headers="c1">@name</td>
 * <td headers="c2">The "@" character indicates that the node is an attribute.</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td headers="c1">text()</td>
 * <td headers="c2">"text()" indicates that the node is a text node.  In this case the name value in the 
 * text node belongs to the context node.</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td headers="c1">full-name/text()</td>
 * <td headers="c2">The name information is stored in the text node of the full-name element.</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td headers="c1" nowrap="true">personal-info/name/text()</td>
 * <td headers="c2">The XPath statement may be used to specify any valid path.</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td headers="c1">name[2]/text()</td>
 * <td headers="c2">The XPath statement may contain positional information.  In this case the name 
 * information is stored in the text node of the second occurrence of the name element.</td>
 * </tr>
 * </table>
 * 
 * <p><b>Mapping a transformation</b>:  A transformer can be configured to perform both the 
 * XML instance-to-Java attribute transformation at unmarshall time (via attribute transformer) and 
 * the Java attribute-to-XML instance transformation at marshal time (via field transformer).
