Cloneable (Nemo Project 0.4 API)

Type Parameters:

T - the type of objects that this class can clone

All Known Implementing Classes:

BeamBoundedSourceVertex, BeamUnboundedSourceVertex, CachedSourceVertex, EmptyComponents.EmptySourceVertex, InMemorySourceVertex, IRVertex, LoopVertex, MessageAggregatorVertex, MessageGeneratorVertex, OperatorVertex, RelayVertex, SamplingVertex, SignalVertex, SourceVertex, TaskSizeSplitterVertex
```
public interface Cloneable<T extends Cloneable<T>>
```
This interface is implemented by objects that can be cloned.
This interface also overcomes the drawback of Cloneable interface which doesn't have a clone method. Josh Bloch (a JDK author) has pointed out this in his book "Effective Java" as Override clone judiciously
