public interface ProcessingNodeBuilder

A ProcessingNode builder.

A processing node builder is used to create the processing statements for a sitemap. A node builder can either be implemented as a singleton, using the ThreadSafe marker interface, or each time a builder is required a new instance is created. All builders are managed by the NodeBuilderSelector. A node builder can implement the following marker interfaces from Avalon: LogEnabled, Contextualizable, Initializable and Configurable. Other marker interfaces, like Recyclable, Poolable or Disposable are not supported! If the builder needs a service manager it can fetch this one from the tree builder.
