-     public class Criterion
      extends java.lang.Object

  This class is not meant to be created and used, it is actually documentation of settings allowed in a DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file). See `com.smartgwt.client.docs.serverds` for how to use this documentation.

  An object representing a criterion to apply to a record.

  A criterion is part of the definition of an `AdvancedCriteria` object, which is used to filter records according to search criteria.

  A criterion consists of an `operator` and typically a `fieldName` from a `Record` and a `value` to compare to. However some operators either don't require a value (eg, isNull) or act on other criteria rather than directly on a `Record`'s fields (eg, the "and" and "or" logical operators).
