All Known Subinterfaces:

UPnPLocalStateVariable
```
public interface UPnPStateVariable
```
The meta-information of a UPnP state variable as declared in the device's service state table (SST).
Method calls to interact with a device (e.g. UPnPAction.invoke(...);) use this class to encapsulate meta information about the input and output arguments.
The actual values of the arguments are passed as Java objects. The mapping of types from UPnP data types to Java data types is described with the field definitions.
