   * A class implements the <code>Cloneable</code> interface to
   * indicate to the {@link Object#clone()} method that it
   * is legal for that method to make a
   * field-for-field copy of instances of that class.
   * <p>
   * Invoking Object's clone method on an instance that does not implement the
   * <code>Cloneable</code> interface results in the exception
   * <code>CloneNotSupportedException</code> being thrown.
   * <p>
   * By convention, classes that implement this interface should override
   * <tt>Object.clone</tt> (which is protected) with a public method.
   * See {@link Object#clone()} for details on overriding this
   * method.
   * <p>
   * Note that this interface does <i>not</i> contain the <tt>clone</tt> method.
   * Therefore, it is not possible to clone an object merely by virtue of the
   * fact that it implements this interface.  Even if the clone method is invoked
   * reflectively, there is no guarantee that it will succeed.
