<wallaroo>

  <plugins>
    <shared>pluginName</shared>
  </plugins>
 
  <parts>
    <part>
      <name>instance1</name>
      <class>className1</class>
    </part>
    <part>
      <name>instance2</name>
      <class>className2</class>
      <attribute>
        <name>attr1_name</name>
        <value>attr1_value</value>
      </attribute>
      <attribute>
        <name>attr2_name</name>
        <value>attr2_value</value>
      </attribute>
    </part>
    <part>
      <name>instance3</name>
      <class>className3</class>
      <parameter1>

        <value>34</value>
      </parameter2>
    </part>
  </parts>
