/**
 * The SlingPostOperation interface defines the service API to be
 * implemented by service providers extending the Sling default POST servlet.
 * Service providers may register OSGi services of this type to be used by the
 * Sling default POST servlet to handle specific operations.
 * 
 * The SlingPostOperation service must be registered with a
 * {@link #PROP_OPERATION_NAME} registration property giving the name(s) of the
 * operations supported by the service. The names will be used to find the
 * actual operation from the {@link SlingPostConstants#RP_OPERATION
 * :operation} request parameter.
 * 
 * The Sling default POST servlet defines the copy,
 * move and delete operation names. These names should
 * not be used by SlingPostOperation service providers.
 *
 * @deprecated as of 2.0.8 (Bundle version 2.2.0) and replaced by
 *             {@link PostOperation}.
