/**
 * Interface implemented by a persistent class via bytecode enhancement.
 *
 * <p>See {@link Accessor} for method documentation.  {@link EnhancedAccessor}
 * implements Accessor and forwards all calls to methods in the Enhanced
 * class.</p>
 *
 * <p>Each class that implements this interface (including its subclasses and
 * superclasses except for Object) must also implement a static block that
 * registers a prototype instance by calling
 * EnhancedAccessor.registerPrototype.  Other instances are created from the
 * protype instance using {@link #bdbNewInstance}.</p>
 *
 * <pre>static { EnhancedAccessor.registerPrototype(new Xxx()); }</pre>
 *
 * <p>An example of the generated code for reading and writing fields is shown
 * below.</p>

 *  private String f2;
 *  private MyClass f3;
