/**
 * A {@code ModelBuilder} allows you to fetch a snapshot of some model for a project or a build.
 * Instances of {@code ModelBuilder} are not thread-safe.
 * 
 * You use a {@code ModelBuilder} as follows:
 *
 * 

 * Create an instance of {@code ModelBuilder} by calling {@link org.gradle.tooling.ProjectConnection#model(Class)}.
 * 
Configure the builder as appropriate.
 * 
Call either {@link #get()} or {@link #get(ResultHandler)} to build the model.
 * 
Optionally, you can reuse the builder to build the model multiple times.
 * 
 *
 * Example:
 *  * ProjectConnection connection = GradleConnector.newConnector()
 *    .forProjectDirectory(new File("someFolder"))
 *    .connect();
 *
 * try {
 *    ModelBuilder<GradleProject> builder = connection.model(GradleProject.class);
 *
 *    //if you use a different than usual build file name:
 *    builder.withArguments("--build-file", "theBuild.gradle");
 *
 *    //configure the standard input in case your build is interactive:
 *    builder.setStandardInput(new ByteArrayInputStream("consume this!".getBytes()));
 *
 *    //if you want to listen to the progress events:
 *    ProgressListener listener = null; // use your implementation
 *    builder.addProgressListener(listener);
 *
 *    //get the model:
 *    GradleProject project = builder.get();
 *
 *    //query the model for information:
 *    System.out.println("Available tasks: " + project.getTasks());
 * } finally {
 *    connection.close();
 * }
 * 
 *
 * @param  The type of model to build
