/// ValueObject:
///
/// This abstract class provides an interface to a particular value, be it a register, a local or global variable,
/// that is evaluated in some particular scope.  The ValueObject also has the capibility of being the "child" of
/// some other variable object, and in turn of having children.  
/// If a ValueObject is a root variable object - having no parent - then it must be constructed with respect to some
/// particular ExecutionContextScope.  If it is a child, it inherits the ExecutionContextScope from its parent.
/// The ValueObject will update itself if necessary before fetching its value, summary, object description, etc.
/// But it will always update itself in the ExecutionContextScope with which it was originally created.

/// A brief note on life cycle management for ValueObjects.  This is a little tricky because a ValueObject can contain
/// various other ValueObjects - the Dynamic Value, its children, the dereference value, etc.  Any one of these can be
/// handed out as a shared pointer, but for that contained value object to be valid, the root object and potentially other
/// of the value objects need to stay around.  
/// We solve this problem by handing out shared pointers to the Value Object and any of its dependents using a shared
/// ClusterManager.  This treats each shared pointer handed out for the entire cluster as a reference to the whole
/// cluster.  The whole cluster will stay around until the last reference is released.
///
/// The ValueObject mostly handle this automatically, if a value object is made with a Parent ValueObject, then it adds
/// itself to the ClusterManager of the parent.

/// It does mean that external to the ValueObjects we should only ever make available ValueObjectSP's, never ValueObjects 
/// or pointers to them.  So all the "Root level" ValueObject derived constructors should be private, and 
/// should implement a Create function that new's up object and returns a Shared Pointer that it gets from the GetSP() method.
///
/// However, if you are making an derived ValueObject that will be contained in a parent value object, you should just
/// hold onto a pointer to it internally, and by virtue of passing the parent ValueObject into its constructor, it will
/// be added to the ClusterManager for the parent.  Then if you ever hand out a Shared Pointer to the contained ValueObject,
/// just do so by calling GetSP() on the contained object.
