public class SingletonMapConverter
extends MapConverter

Converts a singleton map to XML, specifying an 'entry' element with 'key' and 'value' children.

Note: 'key' and 'value' is not the name of the generated tag. The children are serialized as normal elements and the implementation expects them in the order 'key'/'value'.

Supports Collections.singletonMap.
