return type for ManagedProperty.getValue()

[ips]

When I spoke with him last Friday, Scott agreed that ManagedOperation.invoke() should return MetaValue, rather than a java.lang.Object. Should ManagedProperty.getValue() also return MetaValue, rather than java.lang.Object?

Yes, I don't see any reason to be unambiguous that MetaValues are the only value types that should be in the management api. This means setValue(Serializable) should also change, as well as ManagedParameter.

That took forever to test and release, but this change is in the 2.0.0.CR5 release of metadata/managed and in use by jbossas trunk. Next I'm working on the profileservice-spi breakout so jon has no jbossas project dependencies.
