  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  TADataCollector command fails and throws exception when there is
  a validate node or any other basic node that uses properties
  'domain', 'type' and 'set' instead of 'messageDomainProperty',
  'messageTypeProperty' and 'messageSetProperty' .
  
  Below Exception is thrown:
  
  Exception in thread "main" com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException:
  com.google.gson.stream.MalformedJson
  Exception: Use JsonReader.setLenient(true) to accept malformed
  JSON at line 1 column 10 path $
  

Problem conclusion

• Product is modified so that it will no longer use "type",
  "domain" and "set" to represent  messageType, messageDomain and
  messageSet properties of the nodes.
