+/**
+ * A data object is a representation of some structured data.
+ * It is the fundamental component in the SDO (Service Data Objects) package.
+ * Data objects support reflection, path-based accesss, convenience creation and deletion methods,
+ * and the ability to be part of a {@link DataGraph data graph}.
+ * <p>
+ * Each data object holds its data as a series of {@link Property Properties}.
+ * Properties can be accessed by name, property index, or using the property meta object itself.
+ * A data object can also contain references to other data objects, through reference-type Properties.
+ * <p>
+ * A data object has a series of convenience accessors for its Properties.
+ * These methods either use a path (String),
+ * a property index,
+ * or the {@link Property property's meta object} itself, to identify the property.
+ * Some examples of the path-based accessors are as follows:
+ *<pre>
+ * DataObject company = ...;
+ * company.get("name"); is the same as company.get(company.getType().getProperty("name"))
+ * company.set("name", "acme");
+ * company.get("department.0/name") is the same as ((DataObject)((List)company.get("department")).get(0)).get("name")
+ * .n indexes from 0 ... implies the name property of the first department
+ * company.get("department[1]/name") [] indexes from 1 ... implies the name property of the first department
+ * company.get("department[number=123]") returns the first department where number=123
+ * company.get("..") returns the containing data object
+ * company.get("/") returns the root containing data object
+ *</pre>
+ * <p> There are general accessors for Properties, i.e., {@link #get(Property) get} and {@link #set(Property, Object) set},
+ * as well as specific accessors for the primitive types and commonly used data types like
+ * String, Date, List, BigInteger, and BigDecimal.

+ *
+ * The root DataObject is the object returned from do.getRootObject() where
+ * do is the DataObject being serialized in a java.io.ObjectOutputStream.
+ * When do.getContainer() == null then do is a root object.
+ *
+ * The byte format for each DataObject in the stream is:
+ * [0] [path] [root] // when do is not a root object
+ * [1] [rootXML] // when do is a root object
+ *
+ * where:
+ * [0] is the byte 0, serialized using writeByte(0).
+ * [1] is the byte 1, serialized using writeByte(1).
+ *
+ * [path] is an SDO path expression from the root DataObject to the serialized
+ * DataObject such that root.getDataObject(path) == do.
+ * Serialized using writeUTF(path).
+ *
+ * [root] is the root object serialized using writeObject(root).
+ *
+ * [rootXML] is the GZip of the XML serialization of the root DataObject.
+ * The XML serialization is the same as
+ * XMLHelper.INSTANCE.save(root, "commonj.sdo", "dataObject", stream);
+ * where stream is a GZIPOutputStream, length is the number of bytes
+ * in the stream, and bytes are the contents of the stream.
+ * Serialized using writeInt(length), write(bytes).
