/**
 * A client request invocation.
 *
 * An invocation is a request that has been prepared and is ready for execution.
 * Invocations provide a generic (command) interface that enables a separation of
 * concerns between the creator and the submitter. In particular, the submitter
 * does not need to know how the invocation was prepared, but only how it should
 * be executed (synchronously or asynchronously) and when.

public interface Invocation {

    /**
     * A client request invocation builder.
     *
     * The builder, obtained via a call to one of the {@code request(...)}
     * methods on a {@link WebTarget resource target}, provides methods for
     * preparing a client request invocation. Once the request is prepared
     * the invocation builder can be either used to build an {@link Invocation}
     * with a generic execution interface:
     * 
     *   Client client = ClientFactory.newClient();
     *   WebTarget resourceTarget = client.target("http://examples.jaxrs.com/");
     *
     *   // Build a HTTP GET request that accepts "text/plain" response type
     *   // and contains a custom HTTP header entry "Foo: bar".
     *   Invocation invocation = resourceTarget.request("text/plain")
     *           .header("Foo", "bar").buildGet();
     *
     *   // Invoke the request using generic interface
     *   String response = invocation.invoke(String.class);
     * 
* Alternatively, one of the inherited {@link SyncInvoker synchronous invocation * methods} can be used to invoke the prepared request and return the server * response in a single step, e.g.: *
     *   Client client = ClientFactory.newClient();
     *   WebTarget resourceTarget = client.target("http://examples.jaxrs.com/");
     *
     *   // Build and invoke the get request in a single step
     *   String response = resourceTarget.request("text/plain")
     *           .header("Foo", "bar").get(String.class);
     * 
* Once the request is fully prepared for invoking, switching to an * {@link AsyncInvoker asynchronous invocation} mode is possible by * calling the {@link #async() } method on the builder, e.g.: *
     *   Client client = ClientFactory.newClient();
     *   WebTarget resourceTarget = client.target("http://examples.jaxrs.com/");
     *
     *   // Build and invoke the get request asynchronously in a single step
     *   Future response = resourceTarget.request("text/plain")
     *           .header("Foo", "bar").async().get(String.class);
