      the timestamp which denotes the creation of this model version

    • versionNumber

      long versionNumber()
      Returns the model version number. While the version number is a great way to identify changes during the lifetime of a model instance, it cannot be used to compare previously serialized instances of the model with the current instantiation. Model versions are NOT unique among different model instances and/or multiple lifetimes of the same model instance (serialization/deserialization).
      Returns:
      the model version number
