Generic base class for Data Transfer Objects (DTO). This class is used as template for producing concrete DTO classes. Such DTOs are used for serialization and deserialization of state of various kinds of objects that need to be transfered between applications, across platforms, or simply stored in files for future use.

- SerializationDtoBase<Type, Type>
There is an agreement that all derived classes must have a public argument-less (default) constructor. Generic classes are usually not used for serialization/deserialization. Only derived types where both type parameters are fixed are normally used for this purpos. This class is essentially equal to SerializationDtoBase<Type, BaseType> where BaseType is the same as Type. IMPORTANT: This class does not have base type specified, i.e. it is used for situation where actual object type is not sidtinguished from base type. Base type in the variant with two types (SerializationDtoBase<Type, BaseType>) is used just occasionally because of the benefit of defining copying operation only for base type and use it for different derived types.
