Exchanging Hierarchy Data Using XML

Hierarchy Manager supports both XML import and XML export. Since objects linked into a hierarchy can be of any type, it is important for the Importer and Exporter to support flexible XML formatting. Using XML allows you to specify information that you would like to get processed through the XML importer and exporter. Both the XML importer and exporter share the same XML format.
