public interface Storable

This is the root interface for all immutable objects that must be stored in e.g. a file or a database. Classes that implement this interface must provide a constructor with a single parameter of type StringBuffer.

The recommended way to store the objects is an XML representation, because it is human-readable and flexible enough to describe all objects properly. For convenience XMLParser provides methods to store all primitive data types, Strings, Storables and their array types.

For writing or reading a StringBuffer to or from a file you can use FileManager.
