/**
* DataModel
* is an abstraction around arbitrary data
* binding technologies that can be used to adapt a variety of data sources
* for use by JavaServer Faces components that support per-row processing
* for their child components (such as {@link UIData}.
*
* The data collection underlying a {@link DataModel} instance is
* modeled as a collection of row objects that can be accessed by
* a zero-relative cursor (row index). The APIs provide mechanisms to
* position to a specified zero-relative row index, and to retrieve an
* object that represents the data that corresponds to the current
* row index.
*
* A concrete {@link DataModel} instance is attached to a particular
* collection of underlying data by calling the setWrappedData()
* method. It can be detached from that underlying data collection by
* passing a null parameter to this method.
*
* Concrete {@link DataModel} implementations must provide a public
* zero-arguments constructor that calls setWrappedData(null).
* A convenience constructor that takes a wrapped object of the appropriate
* type (and passes it on via a call to setWrappedData(),
* should also be provided.
*
* Event listeners may be registered to receive notifications
* of when a new row index is selected.
