public abstract class BaseMetadataTable
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable
Serializing and deserializing a metadata table object returns a read only implementation of
 the metadata table using a StaticTableOperations. This way no Catalog related calls are
 needed when reading the table data after deserialization.
