Package VASSAL.build Description

Provides classes for building Java instances automatically from XML files. This is a home-grown XML-Java binding used to build a GameModule from the module file. Every XML element in the buildFile corresponds to the name of a class in the build package hierarchy. If a class can contain other Buildable instances as sub-components, those sub-component classes will be contained in a corresponding package. For example, the VASSAL.build.module.map package contains classes that are valid sub-components of the Map class.
