StructBuilder (DSpace Kernel :: API and Implementation 7.1.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.dspace.administer.StructBuilder

```
public class StructBuilder
extends Object
```
This class deals with importing community and collection structures from an XML file. The XML file structure needs to be:
```
 <import_structure>
   <community>
     <name>....</name>
     <community>...</community>
     <collection>
       <name>....</name>
     </collection>
   </community>
 </import_structure>
 
```
It can be arbitrarily deep, and supports all the metadata elements that make up the community and collection metadata. See the system documentation for more details.
