<p>
<var>TXMLObjectWriter</var> is a <var>TAbstractObjectWriter</var> descendant 
which implements an object serialization writer using XML as the storage 
format. TXMLObjectWriter implements abstract methods defined in the ancestor 
class, and provides access to the DOM document and the DOM Node tree used to 
store values generated in the class instance. It maintains an internal stack 
used to capture and process the hierarchical node tree needed to represent a 
class instance.

The TagName in the element is set to the specified TypeName argument. The
