* <p> An <code>OutputObject</code> is the interface used by the

* <p> The implementation of an <code>OutputObject</code> contains the
* encoded data. When the presentation block gives programming language
* typed data to
* <code>OutputObject</code>, the
* implementation of <code>OutputObject</code> is responsible for converting
* that data to the encoded representation of the data for a particular
* encoding.</p>
*
* <p>A particular <em>encoding</em> would subclass
* <code>OutputObject</code>. The subclass would provide methods to set
* the data types appropriate to the presentation block (e.g., simple
* types such as int or boolean, all the way to any type derived from
* <code>java.io.Serializable</code>.).</p>
*
* <p>Note: the protocol block may also use the <code>OutputObject</code> to
* set header metadata.</p>
