 * This empty class is the common root for all persistent capable classes.
 * If this class inherits from java.lang.Object then all subclasses are serializable with the standard Java serialization mechanism.
 * If this class inherits from com.objy.db.app.ooObj then all subclasses are additionally serializable with the Objectivity ODBMS persistance mechanism.
 * Thus, by modifying the inheritance of this class the entire tree of subclasses can be switched to Objectivity compatibility (and back) with minimum effort.
