/**
* A simple program to demonstrate the basic functionality of the
* Commons Digester module.
* <p>
* This code will parse the provided "example.xml" file to build a tree
* of java objects, then cause those objects to print out their values
* to demonstrate that the input file has been processed correctly.
* <p>
* As with all code, there are many ways of achieving the same goal;
* the solution here is only one possible solution to the problem.
* <p>
* Very verbose comments are included here, as this class is intended
* as a tutorial; if you look closely at method "addRules", you will
* see that the amount of code required to use the Digester is actually
* quite low.
* <p>
* Usage: java Main example.xml

// setter-methods on the top object on the stack (the Person
// instance created by the preceeding rule).
//
// For example:
// if attribute "id" exists on the xml tag, and method setId
// with one parameter exists on the object that is on top of
// the digester object stack, then a call will be made to that
// method. The value will be type-converted from string to
// whatever type the target method declares (where possible),
// using the commons ConvertUtils functionality.
//
// Attributes on the xml tag for which no setter methods exist
// on the top object on the stack are just ignored.

// the stack (the AddressBook object), passing the top object
// on the stack (the recently created Person object).

//--------------------------------------------------
// when we encounter a "name" tag, call setName on the top
// object on the stack, passing the text contained within the
// body of that name element [specifying a zero parameter count
// implies one actual parameter, being the body text].
// The top object on the stack will be a person object, because
// the pattern address-book/person always triggers the
// ObjectCreateRule we added previously.
