Class XmlToObject

  org.mule.transformer.AbstractTransformer
      org.mule.transformer.AbstractMessageAwareTransformer

All Implemented Interfaces:

MuleContextAware, Initialisable, NamedObject, BaseTransformer, Transformer

public class XmlToObject
extends AbstractXStreamTransformer

XmlToObject converts xml created by the ObjectToXml transformer in to a java object graph. This transformer uses XStream. Xstream uses some clever tricks so objects that get marshalled to XML do not need to implement any interfaces including Serializable and you don't even need to specify a default constructor.
