23 * A deserializer constructs a value from the xml passed over the wire and
24 * sets a target. The value is set on the target in a number of ways:
25 * setting a field, calling a method, setting an indexed property.
26 * The Target interface hides the complexity. The set method is simply
27 * invoked with the value. A class that implements the Target interface
28 * needs to supply enough information in the constructor to properly do the
29 * set (for example see MethodTarget)
