    public class Copy
extends AbstractTransformer
    Creates copies of the tokens being passed through. In auto-mode, if the payload of the token implements java.io.Serializable, then a deep copy is created. If the payload implements the adams.core.CloneHandler interface, then this approach is used to create a copy of the payload. In all other cases, the payload is just forwarded.

    Input/output:
    - accepts:
       adams.flow.core.Unknown
    - generates:
       adams.flow.core.Unknown


    -logging-level <OFF|SEVERE|WARNING|INFO|CONFIG|FINE|FINER|FINEST> (property: loggingLevel)
    The logging level for outputting errors and debugging output.
    default: WARNING
 
    -name <java.lang.String> (property: name)
    The name of the actor.
    default: Copy
 
    -annotation <adams.core.base.BaseAnnotation> (property: annotations)
    The annotations to attach to this actor.
    default:
 
    -skip <boolean> (property: skip)
    If set to true, transformation is skipped and the input token is just forwarded
    as it is.
    default: false
 
    -stop-flow-on-error <boolean> (property: stopFlowOnError)
    If set to true, the flow execution at this level gets stopped in case this
    actor encounters an error; the error gets propagated; useful for critical
    actors.
    default: false
 
    -silent <boolean> (property: silent)
    If enabled, then no errors are output in the console; Note: the enclosing
    actor handler must have this enabled as well.
    default: false
 
    -type <AUTO|CLONEHANDLER|SERIALIZATION|SHALLOWCOPY> (property: type)
    The type of copy to perform.
    default: AUTO
