    20   * Framework.
    21   * 
    22   * <p>It is recommended to always implement this interface in the classes of your
    23   * own project but it is not a necessity. You can use all functionalities of the
    24   * As2lib Framework without implementing it.
    25   * 
    26   * <p>It enables you to call the {@link #toString} method on instances that have
    27   * been casted to interfaces.
    28   * 
    29   * <p>The default implementation {@code BasicClass} offers an enhanced {@code toString}
    30   * method implementation that returns a better string representation than the default
    31   * {@code Object#toString} method of Flash.
