The HyphenBuilder is used to represent an XML style that can be applied to a serialized object. A style can be used to modify the element and attribute names for the generated document. This styles can be used to generate hyphenated XML.
 
    <example-element>
        <child-element example-attribute='example'>
           <inner-element>example</inner-element>
        </child-element>
     </example-element>
     
 
Above the hyphenated XML elements and attributes can be generated from a style implementation. Styles enable the same objects to be serialized in different ways, generating different styles of XML without having to modify the class schema for that object.
