public final class CloudObject
extends com.google.api.client.json.GenericJson
implements java.lang.Cloneable
Typically, an object to be written by the SDK to the Dataflow service will implement a method
 (typically called asCloudObject()) that returns a CloudObject to represent the
 object in the protocol. Once the CloudObject is constructed, the method should explicitly
 add additional properties to be presented during deserialization, representing child objects by
 building additional CloudObjects.

 for transport via the Dataflow API. | 
| static CloudObject | forClassName(java.lang.String className)Constructs a  CloudObjectto be used for serializing data to be deserialized using the
 supplied class name the supplied class name for transport via the Dataflow API. |

CloudObject by copying the supplied serialized object spec, which must
 represent an SDK object serialized for transport via the Dataflow API.
 The most common use of this method is during deserialization on the worker, where it's used as a binding type during instance construction.
