/**
* The {@code ResourceResolver} defines the API which may be used
* to resolve {@link org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource} objects and
* work with such resources like creating, editing or updating them.
* The resource resolver is available to the request processing servlet
* through the
* {@link org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletRequest#getResourceResolver()}
* method. A resource resolver can also be created through the
* {@link ResourceResolverFactory} service.
*
* The {@code ResourceResolver} is also an {@link Adaptable} to get
* adapters to other types. A JCR based resource resolver might support adapting
* to the JCR Session used by the resolver to access the JCR Repository.
*
* A {@code ResourceResolver} is generally not thread safe! As a
* consequence, an application which uses the resolver, its returned resources
* and/or objects resulting from adapting either the resolver or a resource,
* must provide proper synchronization to ensure no more than one thread
* concurrently operates against a single resolver, resource or resulting
* objects.
*
* Accessing Resources
*
* This interface defines two kinds of methods to access resources: The
* resolve methods and the getResource methods. The
* difference lies in the algorithm applied to find the requested resource and
* in the behavior in case a resource cannot be found:
*
*
* Method Kind
* Access Algorithm
* Missing Resource
*
*
* resolve
* Path is always assumed to be absolute. Uses elaborate resource resolution
* algorithm. This kind of method is intended to resolve request URLs to
* resources.
* Returns {@link NonExistingResource}
*
*
* getResource
* Directly access resources with absolute path. For relative paths, the
* {@link #getSearchPath() search path} is applied. This method is intended to
* be used by request processing scripts to access further resources as
* required.
* Returns null
*
*
*
* Resource Handling
*
* A resource resolver provides various methods to manage resources. All changes
* are transient and require to commit them at the end.
*
* - {@link #create(Resource, String, Map)} for creating a new resource.
*
- {@link #delete(Resource)} to delete a resource.
*
- {@link #adaptTo(Class)} allows to adapt a resource to a {@link ModifiableValueMap}
* to update a resource.
*
- {@link #move(String, String)} to move resources.
*
- {@link #copy(String, String)} to copy resources.
*
- {@link #commit()} commits all staged changes.
*
- {@link #revert()} reverts all staged changes.
*
*
* The resource tree accessible through the resource resolver is backed by one or
* more {@link org.apache.sling.spi.resource.provider.ResourceProvider}s. In
* general it is advisable to limit transient changes to a single resource provider.
* The {@link #commit()} is not using a two phase commit, therefore if there
* is more than one resource provider involved and one of them fails in persisting,
* changes already committed to other providers are not reverted.
*
* Lifecycle
*
* A Resource Resolver has a life cycle which begins with the creation of the
* Resource Resolver using any of the factory methods and ends with calling the
* {@link #close()} method. It is very important to call the {@link #close()}
* method once the resource resolver is not used any more to ensure any system
* resources are properly cleaned up.
*
* A Resource Resolver may also be closed implicitly if the {@link ResourceResolverFactory}
* which was used to create this resolver is no longer active.
*
* To check whether a Resource Resolver can still be used, the {@link #isLive()}
* method can be called.
*
* A ResourceResolver is only valid for as long as the
* ResourceResolverFactory that created this instance exists. The
* same applies in general to all objects returned by this instance,
* especially for all resources. If the ResourceResolverFactory
* does not exist anymore, the resource resolver instances becomes invalid.
*
* Resource Resolver Attributes
*
* The authentication info properties provided to the
* {@link ResourceResolverFactory#getResourceResolver(Map)},
* {@link ResourceResolverFactory#getAdministrativeResourceResolver(Map)}, or
* {@link #clone(Map)} are available through the {@link #getAttributeNames()}
* and {@link #getAttribute(String)} methods with the exception of security
* sensitive properties like {@link ResourceResolverFactory#PASSWORD} which is
* not exposed.
