@Deprecated
public interface IConverter

The IConverter Interface provides conversion methods when using GigaSpaces Entry internal representation - The IGSEntry.
The IConverter allows you to convert the IGSEntry to the user original object format - that is JavaSpace Entry or Map API Object and vice versa.
IConverter used mainly with the CacheLoader and CacheStore interfaces via the AbstractCacheLoader.
You need to extend your CacheLoader/CacheStore implementation from the AbstractCacheLoader and use its getConvertor() method to retrieve IConverter instance.
