/**
 * A <code>ParameterBlock encapsulates all the information about sources and
 * parameters (Objects) required by a RenderableImageOp, or other
 * classes that process images.
 *
 * <p> Although it is possible to place arbitrary objects in the
 * source Vector, users of this class may impose semantic constraints
 * such as requiring all sources to be RenderedImages or
 * RenderableImage.  <code>ParameterBlock itself is merely a container and
 * performs no checking on source or parameter types.
 *
 * <p> All parameters in a ParameterBlock are objects; convenience
 * add and set methods are available that take arguments of base type and
 * construct the appropriate subclass of Number (such as
 * Integer or Float).  Corresponding get methods perform a
 * downward cast and have return values of base type; an exception
 * will be thrown if the stored values do not have the correct type.
 * There is no way to distinguish between the results of
 * "short s; add(s)" and "add(new Short(s))".
 *
 * <p> Note that the get and set methods operate on references.
 * Therefore, one must be careful not to share references between
 * <code>ParameterBlocks when this is inappropriate.  For example, to create
 * a new <code>ParameterBlock that is equal to an old one except for an
 * added source, one might be tempted to write:
 *
 * <pre>
 * ParameterBlock addSource(ParameterBlock pb, RenderableImage im) {
 *     ParameterBlock pb1 = new ParameterBlock(pb.getSources());
 *     pb1.addSource(im);
 *     return pb1;
 * }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> This code will have the side effect of altering the original
 * <code>ParameterBlock, since the getSources operation returned a reference
 * to its source Vector.  Both pb and pb1 share their source Vector,
 * and a change in either is visible to both.
 *
 * <p> A correct way to write the addSource function is to clone
 * the source Vector:
 *
 * <pre>
 * ParameterBlock addSource (ParameterBlock pb, RenderableImage im) {
 *     ParameterBlock pb1 = new ParameterBlock(pb.getSources().clone());
 *     pb1.addSource(im);
 *     return pb1;
 * }
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> The clone method of ParameterBlock has been defined to
 * perform a clone of both the source and parameter Vectors for
 * this reason.  A standard, shallow clone is available as
 * shallowClone.
 *
 * <p> The addSource, setSource, add, and set methods are
 * defined to return 'this' after adding their argument.  This allows
 * use of syntax like:
 *
 * <pre>
 * ParameterBlock pb = new ParameterBlock();
 * op = new RenderableImageOp("operation", pb.add(arg1).add(arg2));
 * </pre>
 * */
