24 /**
25  * A key to a piece of data associated with a {@link Node} at runtime.
26  * The key contains type information that can be used to check the
27  * type of any user data value for the key when the value is set. DataKey is abstract in order to
28  * force the creation of a subtype. That subtype is used to test for identity when looking for the
29  * user data because actual object identity would suffer from problems under serialization.
30  * So, the correct way to declare a DataKey is like this:
31  * <p>
32  * <pre>
33  * <code>
34  * public static final DataKey&lt;Role&gt; ROLE = new DataKey&lt;Role&gt;() { };
35  * </code>
36  * </pre>
37  * <p>
38  * This code was taken from the <a href="http://wicket.apache.org/">Wicket project</a>.
39  *
40  * @param <T> The type of the object which is stored
41  * @see Node#getData(DataKey)
