Abstract
An object identity swapper dynamically updates the configuration of an object by taking a first object, instantiating a new second object, swapping the identities of the first and second objects, and reading and converting the state data of the old object (now the second object) into the new object (now the first object). The result is that the first object identity doesn't change, but its configuration is updated without passivating the object.
