public interface Copyable<T extends Copyable<T>>
Interface that if implemented adds support for deep copy behavior to an object.

It is recommended for the implementation to follow a copy constructor pattern, for example: 

 public class MyCopyable implements Copyable {

     private boolean myFlag = false;

     public MyCopyable() {}

     public MyCopyable(MyCopyable other) {
         this.myFlag = other.myFlag;
     }

     @Override
     public MyCopyable copy() {
         return new MyCopyable(this);
     }
 }
