/**
 * Class XMLElement
 * The XMLElement class is used to generate an xml tree architecture.
 * This xml tree architecture is similar to the SimpleXMLElement class embeded by default within PHP5.
 * Each XMLElement contains :
 * - all the properties inherited from the Node class, $name, $parent, $children, $count
 * - an entity, the $entity protected property
 * - a mapped array containing all the attributes of the xml element, the $attributes protected property
 * - a possible prefix of the xml element entity, the $prefix protected property
 * - the possible text content of the xml element, the $text protected property
 * note : only empty xml element (without child elements) can define this property
 *
 * For more information please refer to the Node class documentation.
