- ## Method Details

  - ### equals

    public boolean equals(Object obj)
    Compares this object against the specified object. The result is `true` if and only if the argument is not `null` and is a `MutableObject` object that contains the same `MutableObject` value as this object.
    Overrides:
      `equals` in class `Object`
    Parameters:
      `obj` - the object to compare with, `null` returns `false`.
    Returns:
      `true` if the objects are the same; `true` if the objects have equivalent `value` fields; `false` otherwise.

  - ### getValue

    @Deprecated public T getValue()
    Deprecated.
    Use `Mutable.get()`.
    Gets the value.
    Specified by:
      `getValue` in interface `Mutable<T>`
    Returns:
      the value, may be null.

  - ### hashCode

    public int hashCode()
    Returns the value's hash code or `0` if the value is `null`.
    Overrides:
      `hashCode` in class `Object`
    Returns:
      the value's hash code or `0` if the value is `null`.

  - ### setValue

    public void setValue(T value)
    Sets the value.
    Specified by:
      `setValue` in interface `Mutable<T>`
    Parameters:
      `value` - the value to set.

  - ### toString

    public String toString()
    Returns the String value of this mutable.
    Overrides:
      `toString` in class `Object`
    Returns:
      the mutable value as a string.
