/**
 * The Builder class is used to represent an XML style
 * that can be applied to a serialized object. A style can be used to
 * modify the element and attribute names for the generated document.
 * Styles can be used to generate hyphenated or camel case XML.
 *  * 
 *    <example-element>
 *        <child-element example-attribute='example'>
 *           <inner-element>example</inner-element>
 *        </child-element>
 *     </example-element>
 *     
 * 
 * Above the hyphenated XML elements and attributes can be generated
 * from a style implementation. Styles enable the same objects to be
 * serialized in different ways, generating different styles of XML
 * without having to modify the class schema for that object.
