ModelNode (Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 7.2.0.GA public API)

All Implemented Interfaces:

Externalizable, Serializable, Cloneable
```
public class ModelNode
extends Object
implements Externalizable, Cloneable
```
A dynamic model representation node object.
A node can be of any type specified in the ModelType enumeration. The type can be queried via getType() and updated via any of the set*() methods. The value of the node can be acquired via the as<type>() methods, where <type> is the desired value type. If the type is not the same as the node type, a conversion is attempted between the types.
A node can be made read-only by way of its protect() method, which will prevent any further changes to the node or its sub-nodes.
Instances of this class are not thread-safe and need to be synchronized externally.

```
    Get a copy of this value as an object. Object values will simply copy themselves as by the clone() method. Property values will return a single-entry object whose key and value are copied from the property key and value. List values will attempt to interpolate the list into an object by iterating each item, mapping each property into an object entry and otherwise taking pairs of list entries, converting the first to a string, and using the pair of entries as a single object entry. If an object key appears more than once in the source object, the last key takes precedence.
