 47                The CIMPropertyList class represents a propertyList parameter in a CIM
 48                operation request, as defined in the DMTF Specification for CIM
 49                Operations over HTTP.
 50            
 51                <p>This class consists of an array of property names and a flag
 52                indicating whether the list is null.  A null property list indicates
 53                that no filtering is performed on the basis of this parameter.  A
 54                non-null property list indicates that any property not specified in the
 55                list is to be filtered from the CIM operation response.  (An empty
 56                property list implies that all properties should be filtered from the
 57                response.)
 58            
 59                <p>A null property list is created by using the default constructor or the
 60                clear method.  An empty property list is created by setting the value to
 61                an empty Array.
