= TODO: Regarding default interface methods defined here in this interface0x000D0x000ATODO: and the need for implementing an 'IP' property in implementing classes like -IP-.0x000D0x000ATODO: As AgoRapide matures, considering implementing copies of the default interface methods in a common super class0x000D0x000ATODO: for PRich, PConcurrent, PExact (not necessary for PValue, PEmpty and not possible for BaseAttribute).0x000D0x000A0x000D0x000ANote how AgoRapide internally uses this same mechanism ('eating its own dog food'), and also how you are encouraged to document your application through attributes like -ClassAttribute- and -ClassMemberAttribute- using the same mechanism.0x000D0x000A0x000D0x000ANote about packing of values: -PropertyAccess- uses packed values (everything is sent and received as -IP-) meaning for instance that a string-value would typically be packed inside a -PValue- object.0x000D0x000AConnected with this, classes implementing -IP- have a choice between0x000D0x000A1) Unpacking on receive, packing on send (like used by -PExact-) or0x000D0x000A2) Storing in packed form (like used by -PRich-).0x000D0x000AThe former is more memory efficient (see -MemoryConsumption-), but less able to store metadata (see -PP-) and hierarchical data.0x000D0x000A(see also -PackObjectForStorageInEntityObject- and -TryGetV-.)0x000D0x000ASee also -ITypeDescriber- which provides a standardized mechanism for describing single-property values.0x000D0x000A0x000D0x000A
