/** A MapMessage object is used to send a set of name-value pairs.
* The names are String objects, and the values are primitive
* data types in the Java programming language. The names must have a value that
* is not null, and not an empty string. The entries can be accessed
* sequentially or randomly by name. The order of the entries is undefined.
* MapMessage inherits from the Message interface
* and adds a message body that contains a Map.
*
* The primitive types can be read or written explicitly using methods
* for each type. They may also be read or written generically as objects.
* For instance, a call to MapMessage.setInt("foo", 6) is
* equivalent to MapMessage.setObject("foo", new Integer(6)).
* Both forms are provided, because the explicit form is convenient for
* static programming, and the object form is needed when types are not known
* at compile time.
*
*
When a client receives a MapMessage, it is in read-only
* mode. If a client attempts to write to the message at this point, a
* MessageNotWriteableException is thrown. If
* clearBody is called, the message can now be both read from and
* written to.
*
*
MapMessage objects support the following conversion table.
* The marked cases must be supported. The unmarked cases must throw a
* JMSException. The String-to-primitive conversions
* may throw a runtime exception if the primitive's valueOf()
* method does not accept it as a valid String representation of
* the primitive.
*
*
A value written as the row type can be read as the column type.
*

* |double | X X
* |String | X X X X X X X X
* |byte[] | X
* |----------------------------------------------------------------------
*
*
* Attempting to read a null value as a primitive type must be treated
* as calling the primitive's corresponding valueOf(String)
* conversion method with a null value. Since char does not
* support a String conversion, attempting to read a null value
* as a char must throw a NullPointerException.
