/**
* An annotation processing tool framework will {@linkplain
* Processor#init provide an annotation processor with an object
* implementing this interface} so the processor can use facilities
* provided by the framework to write new files, report error
* messages, and find other utilities.
*
* Third parties may wish to provide value-add wrappers around the
* facility objects from this interface, for example a {@code Filer}
* extension that allows multiple processors to coordinate writing out
* a single source file. To enable this, for processors running in a
* context where their side effects via the API could be visible to
* each other, the tool infrastructure must provide corresponding
* facility objects that are {@code .equals}, {@code Filer}s that are
* {@code .equals}, and so on. In addition, the tool invocation must
* be able to be configured such that from the perspective of the
* running annotation processors, at least the chosen subset of helper
* classes are viewed as being loaded by the same class loader.
* (Since the facility objects manage shared state, the implementation
* of a wrapper class must know whether or not the same base facility
* object has been wrapped before.)

See documentation of the particular tool infrastructure
