/**
* Custom classes may be sent over DBus if they implement this interface.
* <p>
* In addition to the serialize method, classes <b>MUST</b> implement
* a deserialize method which returns null and takes as it's arguments
* all the DBus types the class will be serialied to <i>in order</i> and
* <i>with type parameterisation</i>. They <b>MUST</b> also provide a
* zero-argument constructor.
* </p>
* <p>
* The serialize method should return the class properties you wish to
* serialize, correctly formatted for the wire
* (DBusConnection.convertParameters() can help with this), in order in an
* Object array.
* </p>
* <p>
* The deserialize method will be called once after the zero-argument
* constructor. This should contain all the code to initialise the object
* from the types.
