Description

Currently if you create a PdxInstanceFactory with the empty string as the class name then the PdxInstances it creates support class versioning. Since the empty string is not a class, these PdxInstances should not support class versioning. The only place this shows up is in PdxInstance.equal which allows two instances with different identity fields to still be equal. It does this if the one that has the identity field has the default value for it.

What should happen if you have two PdxInstances with the class name "", is that they are only equal if the have all the same identity fields.
