URLResourceHolder

public interface ResourceHolder<R extends Serializable>
extends Serializable

Wraps input or output resource and logic and state necessary to determine if the resource has or has not changed since the holder instance was created.

Current implementation assumes R is some sort of serializable resource reference that can be used to locate resource and determine resource up-to-date status against resource state captured in resource holder instance. For example, to determine if an input has changed, implementation needs to locate input's included inputs and check their status.
