/**
 * Abstract superclass for the convenience classes {@link
 * SummaryInformation} and {@link DocumentSummaryInformation}.
 *
 * The motivation behind this class is quite nasty if you look
 * behind the scenes, but it serves the application programmer well by
 * providing him with the easy-to-use {@link SummaryInformation} and
 * {@link DocumentSummaryInformation} classes. When parsing the data a
 * property set stream consists of (possibly coming from an {@link
 * java.io.InputStream}) we want to read and process each byte only
 * once. Since we don't know in advance which kind of property set we
 * have, we can expect only the most general {@link
 * PropertySet}. Creating a special subclass should be as easy as
 * calling the special subclass' constructor and pass the general
 * {@link PropertySet} in. To make things easy internally, the special
 * class just holds a reference to the general {@link PropertySet} and
 * delegates all method calls to it.
 *
 * A cleaner implementation would have been like this: The {@link
 * PropertySetFactory} parses the stream data into some internal
 * object first.  Then it finds out whether the stream is a {@link
 * SummaryInformation}, a {@link DocumentSummaryInformation} or a
 * general {@link PropertySet}.  However, the current implementation
 * went the other way round historically: the convenience classes came
 * only late to my mind.
