Class Container.Container

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----Container.Container

public abstract class Container

extends Object

implements Serializable

Description:This class defines the Container element of a container list data 
 structure. Each container contains an Object (subclasses define type) and a
reference to another container. This structure can contain any class of object and
is used by ContainerList/ContainerArray to create a  heterogeneous list.
  
Note: that subclasses must be named ClassNameContainer ie PermanetEmployeeContainer, ContractEmployeeContainer
 and VolunteerContainer must be pre compiled and placed in the Container package before use.

Also the subclasses must implement the GetValue() and  SetValue(Object)methods.
And finally they must contain a default contructor so that the dynamic constructed Container 
is append from ContainerList or ContainerArray will work.
