transient so that object would be serializable. However, serialization
is probably not right if there are outstanding read or write permissions.

//// Workspace
/**
An instance of Workspace is used for synchronization and version tracking
of interdependent groups of objects. These objects are said to be in the
workspace. This is not the same as the <i>container</i> association
in Ptolemy II. A workspace is never returned by a getContainer() method.
<p>
The workspace provides a rudimentary directory service that can
be used to keep track of the objects within it. It is not required to use
it in order to use the workspace for synchronization. Items are added
to the directory by calling add().
The names of the items in the directory are not required to be unique.
<p>
The synchronization model of the workspace is a multiple-reader,
single-writer model. Any number of threads can simultaneously read the
workspace. Only one thread at a time can have write access to the workspace,
and while the write access is held, no other thread can get read access.
<p>
When reading the state of objects in the workspace, a thread must
ensure that no other thread is simultaneously modifying the objects in the
workspace. To read-synchronize on a workspace, use the following code:
<pre>
try {
_workspace.getReadAccess();
// ... code that reads
} finally {
_workspace.doneReading();
}
</pre>
We assume that the _workspace variable references the workspace, as for example
in the NamedObj class. The getReadAccess() method suspends the current thread
if another thread is currently modifying the workspace, and otherwise
returns immediately. Note that multiple readers can simultaneously have
read access. The finally clause is executed even if
an exception occurs. This is essential because without the call
to doneReading(), the workspace will never again allow any thread
to modify it.
<p>
To make safe changes to the objects in a workspace, a thread must
write-synchronize using the following code:
<pre>
try {
_workspace.getWriteAccess();
// ... code that writes
} finally {
_workspace.doneWriting();
}
</pre>
Again, the call to doneWriting() is essential, or the workspace
will remain permanently locked to either reading or writing.
<p>
Note that it is not necessary to obtain a write lock just to add
an item to the workspace directory. The methods for accessing
the directory are all synchronized, so there is no risk of any
thread reading an inconsistent state.
<p>
A major subtlety in using this class concerns acquiring a write
lock while holding a read lock. If a thread holds a read lock
and calls getWriteAccess(), if any other thread holds a read lock,
then the call to getWriteAccess() will block the calling thread
until those other read accesses are released. However, while
the thread is blocked, it yields its read permissions. This
prevents a deadlock from occurring, but it means that the
another thread may acquire write permission while the thread
is stalled and modify the model. Specifically, the pattern
is:
<pre>
try {
_workspace.getReadAccess();
... do things ...
try {
_workspace.getWriteAccess();
... at this point, the structure of a model may have changed! ...
... make my own changes knowing that the structure may have changed...
} finally {
_workspace.doneWriting();
}
... continue doing things, knowing the model may have changed...
} finally {
_workspace.doneReading();
}
</pre>
Unfortunately, a user may acquire a read access and invoke a method
that, unknown to the user, acquires write access. For this reason, it
is very important to document methods that acquire write access, and
to avoid invoking them within blocks that hold read access. Note that
there is no difficulty acquiring read access from within a block
holding write access.
