+ "IT Mill Toolkit data model provides interface for implementing "
+ "buffering in data components. The basic idea is that a component "
+ "reading their state from data source can implement "
+ "Buffered-interface, for storing the value internally. "
+ "Buffering provides transactional access "
+ "for setting data: data can be put to a component's buffer and "
+ "afterwards committed to or discarded by re-reding it from the data source. "
+ "The buffering can be used for creating interactive interfaces "
+ "as well as caching the data for performance reasons."
+ "
Buffered interface contains methods for committing and discarding "
+ "changes to an object and support for controlling buffering mode "
+ "with read-through and write-through modes. "
+ "Read-through mode means that the value read from the buffered "
+ "object is constantly up to date with the data source. "
+ "Respectively the write-through mode means that all changes to the object are "
+ "immediately updated to the data source.";
