/**
* Abstract base for ValueExtractor implementations.  It provides common
* functionality that allows any extending extractor to be used as a value
* Comparator.
*
* Starting with Coherence 3.5, when used to extract information that is
* coming from a Map, subclasses have the additional ability to operate
* against the Map::Entry instead of just the value. In other words, like the
* EntryExtractor class, this allows an extractor implementation to
* extract a desired value using all available information on the
* corresponding Map::Entry object and is intended to be used in advanced
* custom scenarios, when application code needs to look at both key and
* value at the same time or can make some very specific assumptions regarding
* to the implementation details of the underlying Entry object. To maintain
* full backwards compatibility, the default behavior remains to extract from
* the Value property of the Map::Entry.
*
* <b>Note:</b> subclasses are responsible for initialization and POF
* serialization of the {@link #m_nTarget} field.
