Interface VariableIF

All Superinterfaces:

Comparable<VariableSimpleIF>, VariableSimpleIF

@Deprecated
public interface VariableIF
extends VariableSimpleIF

Deprecated.

do not use.

The public interface to a Variable. TODO was here because of VariableEnhanced. But not needed, as any VariableEnhanced can be cast to Variable.
