+ * class that implements the command but <i>it is not guaranteed to
+ * return a valid value</i>. The reason for this is to allow CommandMap
+ * implmentations that subclass CommandInfo to provide special
+ * behavior. For example a CommandMap could dynamically generate
+ * JavaBeans. In this case, it might not be possible to create an
+ * object with all the correct state information solely from the class
