/**
    The CIMName class defines methods for handling CIM names.
    <p>
    The names of classes, properties, qualifiers, and methods are all
    CIM names. A CIM name must match the following regular
    expression:
    <PRE>
	[A-Z-a-z_][A-Za-z_0-9]*
    </PRE>
    <B>Examples:</B>
    <ul>
    <li>name - legal name
    <li>Type - legal name
    <li>3types - Illegal CIMName.
    </ul>
    The CIMName object includes the attribute Null which is required
    by the DMTF operations definitions.  Note that this and the regular
    expression limits on CIMName are what separate this from the String
    class. This allows the names in CIM operations such as getClass to 
    provide pattern matching tests for the classname parameter as well as
    separate the concept of empty from Null.
