/**
 * Purpose:Wraps an immutable value for a past time.
 * A session, query, or expression can be as of a past time.
 * 
 * For Oracle 9R2 Flasback corresponds to the sub clause which appears between
 * the table and alias name in the FROM clause:
 * SELECT ... FROM EMPLOYEE AS OF TIMESTAMP (value) t0, ...
 * 
For generic historical schema support, a special criteria can be added to
 * the where clause for each table in a select:
 * ((t0.ROW_START {@literal <=} value) AND ((t0.END IS NULL) OR (t1.END {@literal >} value)))
 * 
Responsibilities:
 * 

 * By default AsOfClause is a timestamp.  To specify a system change number use AsOfSCNClause.
 * 
For Oracle 9R2 Flashback prints the correct AS OF clause before the alias name in the FROM clause.
 * 
Read-only: the wrapped value can not change.
