All Implemented Interfaces:
    org.apache.avalon.excalibur.pool.Recyclable, org.apache.avalon.framework.component.Component, org.apache.avalon.framework.component.Recomposable

All Known Implementing Classes:
    AbstractStreamPipeline, NonCachingStreamPipeline, CachingStreamPipeline

• collects a Reader and let it produce a character stream
• or connects an EventPipeline with a Serializer and let them produce the byte stream

A StreamPipeline is Recomposable since the ComponentManager used to get the reader or serializer depends on the pipeline assembly engine where they are defined (i.e. a given sitemap file).
