/**
* An object with an operational state, plus asynchronous {@link #start()} and
* {@link #stop()} lifecycle methods to transition between states.
* Example services include webservers, RPC servers and timers.
*
* The normal lifecycle of a service is:
*
* - {@link State#NEW} ->
* - {@link State#STARTING} ->
* - {@link State#RUNNING} ->
* - {@link State#STOPPING} ->
* - {@link State#TERMINATED}
*
*
* The valid state transitions of a Service are:
*
* - {@link State#NEW} -> {@link State#STARTING}: This occurs when
* start() is called the first time and is the only valid state transition
* from the NEW state.
* - {@link State#NEW} -> {@link State#TERMINATED}: This occurs when
* stop() is called from the NEW state.
* - {@link State#STARTING} -> {@link State#RUNNING}: This occurs when
* a service has successfully started
* - {@link State#STARTING} -> {@link State#FAILED}: This occurs when a
* service experiences an unrecoverable error while starting up
* - {@link State#STARTING} -> {@link State#STOPPING}: This occurs when
* stop() is called while a service is starting up.
* - {@link State#RUNNING} -> {@link State#STOPPING}: This occurs when
* stop() is called on a running service.
* - {@link State#RUNNING} -> {@link State#FAILED}: This occurs when an
* unrecoverable error occurs while a service is running.
* - {@link State#STOPPING} -> {@link State#FAILED}: This occurs when an
* unrecoverable error occurs while a service is stopping.
* - {@link State#STOPPING} -> {@link State#TERMINATED}: This occurs
* when the service successfully stops.
*
*
* N.B. The {@link State#FAILED} and {@link State#TERMINATED} states are
* terminal states, once a service enters either of these states it cannot ever
* leave them.
*
*
Implementors of this interface are strongly encouraged to extend one of
* the abstract classes in this package which implement this interface and
* make the threading and state management easier.
