The ManagedEntityValue interface is the base interface for all more
 detailed interfaces which represent any kind of object that is to be managed.
 
 Classes which implement ManagedEntityValue or a
 sub interface of ManagedEntityValue.
 are also called value classes.
 
All classes implementing a value interface provide several ways to access the attributes:
public Object getAttributeValue(String attributeName)
 public void setAttributeValue(String attributeName, Object newValue)
