* TransformerUtils provides reference implementations and
* utilities for the Transformer functor interface. The supplied transformers are:
*
* - Invoker - returns the result of a method call on the input object
*
- Clone - returns a clone of the input object
*
- Constant - always returns the same object
*
- Closure - performs a Closure and returns the input object
*
- Predicate - returns the result of the predicate as a Boolean
*
- Factory - returns a new object from a factory
*
- Chained - chains two or more transformers together
*
- Switch - calls one transformer based on one or more predicates
*
- SwitchMap - calls one transformer looked up from a Map
*
- Instantiate - the Class input object is instantiated
*
- Map - returns an object from a supplied Map
*
- Null - always returns null
*
- NOP - returns the input object, which should be immutable
*
- Exception - always throws an exception
*
- StringValue - returns a
java.lang.String representation of the input object
*
* All the supplied transformers are Serializable.
