Re: [Jsdsi-devel] Obj and clone

[Sean R. <sra...@ae...>]

ok. I just need to return a copy of Principal (PublicKey/PublicKeyHash) 
within the Hibernate framework. I can do the copy manually within my 
stuff for now - though maybe I could write a 'service class' within 
jsdsi.util that'll take an Obj and return a copy of it.
