<div class="block"><p><b>Purpose: </b>XmlReadTransformer is used to allow the user direct access to the XML in order to populate their
object model. XmlReadTransformer is used in conjunction with XmlWriteTransformers/XmlWriteTransformer to create a customised
mapping for a specific attribute. XmlReadTransformer specifies the transformer to be invoked on the
unmarshal.
<p><b>Mapping a transformation</b>: A transformer can be configured to perform both the
XML instance-to-Java attribute transformation at unmarshall time (via attribute transformer) and
the Java attribute-to-XML instance transformation at marshal time (via field transformer).
<p><b>Example:</b>
<p><em>XML Schema</em><br>
<code>
&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;<br>
&lt;xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;xsd:element name="employee" type="employee-type"/&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;xsd:complexType name="employee-type"&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;xsd:sequence&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;xsd:element name="name" type="xsd:string"/&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;xsd:element name="normal-hours" type="normal-hours-type"/&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/xsd:sequence&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/xsd:complexType&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;xsd:complexType name="normal-hours-type"&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;xsd:sequence&gt;<br>
