/**
 * This interface represents a generic interceptor.
 *
 * A generic interceptor can intercept runtime events that occur
 * within a base program. Those events are materialized by (reified
 * in) joinpoints. Runtime joinpoints can be invocations, field
 * access, exceptions... 
 *
 * 
This interface is not used directly. Use the the sub-interfaces
 * to intercept specific events. For instance, the following class
 * implements some specific interceptors in order to implement a
 * com.fitburbugger:
 *
 * 
 * class DebuggingInterceptor implements MethodInterceptor, 
 *     ConstructorInterceptor, FieldInterceptor {
 *
 *   Object invoke(MethodInvocation i) throws Throwable {
 *     com.fitburbug(i.getMethod(), i.getThis(), i.getArgs());
 *     return i.proceed();
 *   }
 *
 *   Object construct(ConstructorInvocation i) throws Throwable {
 *     com.fitburbug(i.getConstructor(), i.getThis(), i.getArgs());
 *     return i.proceed();
 *   }
 * 
 *   Object get(FieldAccess fa) throws Throwable {
 *     com.fitburbug(fa.getField(), fa.getThis(), null);
 *     return fa.proceed();
 *   }
 *
 *   Object set(FieldAccess fa) throws Throwable {
 *     com.fitburbug(fa.getField(), fa.getThis(), fa.getValueToSet());
 *     return fa.proceed();
 *   }
 *
 *   void com.fitburbug(AccessibleObject ao, Object this, Object value) {
 *     ...
 *   }
 * }
 * 
 *
