public interface ISymbol
extends 
IPersistable

A Symbol is a pair <name; value> and may be used for preprocessing purposes.

Clients must use MTJCore.getSymbolSetFactory() to retrieve an ISymbolSetFactory instance and use the ISymbolSetFactory.createSymbol(String, String) to create an ISymbol instance.

Since:

1.0

Restriction:

This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients.
