2009/04/15 - Apache HiveMind has been retired.

For more information, please explore the Attic.

The Translators configuration defines the translators that may be used with XML conversion rules.

Contributions are of the form:

<translator name="..." class="..." service-id="..."/> 

Only one of class and service-id attributes should be specified. The former is the complete name of a class (implementing the Translator interface). It should have a no-args and/or single String constructor. The second is used to contribute a service (which must also implement the interface).

Names of translators must be unique; it is not possible to override the existing service model translators. A single translator, class, is hard-coded into HiveMind, the others appear as ordinary contributions.
