public interface AbstractMapping

This is the common interface to define a map or function. The Java language doesn't provide us with a way to have only one interface for primitive types and Objects as the same time. May be with Java 1.5 although I don't know how... This empty interface is the mean by which we provide a way to group all mappings.
