 * @brief This class is used to mark datatypes for serialization with the

 * @details
 * Used by declaring any arbitrary datatype with SerializeElement<T> myVariable,
 * inside a SerialLinkedListAdapter implementation and setting the sequence
 * of objects with setNext() and setStart().
 * Serilization and Deserialization is then performed automatically in
 * specified sequence order.
