- * A value represents the value of a variable.

- * An implementation may choose to re-use or discard
- * values on iterative thread suspensions. Clients
- * cannot assume that values are identical or equal across
- * iterative thread suspensions and must check for equality on iterative
- * suspensions if they wish to re-use the objects.
- * </p>
- * <p>
- * An implementation that preserves equality
- * across iterative suspensions may display more desirable behavior in
- * some clients. For example, if variables are preserved
- * while stepping, a UI client would be able to update the UI incrementally,
- * rather than collapse and redraw the entire list or tree.
