All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable

Direct Known Subclasses:

public abstract class BusinessObject
extends Object
implements Serializable, Cloneable

A business domain object.

Only minimal convenience methods are provided by BusinessObject. Whilst many other methods could easily be offered (and overridden on an as-required basis) it is felt the default behaviour of Object is widely understood and an appropriate default.
