public interface PropertyTracker

Interface to access details on what properties of an object have changed since its creation or the last resetting of the change tracking. Subclasses (or rather subinterfaces) usually just define the changed properties as constants.
Since properties are to be stored, the corresponding tracker ( getChangedProperties(boolean)) contain serializable values.
