/**
 * The events generated by default contain just enough information to make the
 * event relevant but they avoid cramming too much information in order to reduce
 * the cost of sending them. Optionally, the information shipped in the events
 * can be customised in order to contain more information, such as values, or to
 * contain even less information. This customization is done with {@link org.infinispan.filter.Converter}
 * instances generated by a {@link org.infinispan.filter.ConverterFactory}.
 *
 * As a result of this conversion, custom events are reprenseted by this class,
 * and are expected in methods annotation with either
 * {@link org.infinispan.hotrod.annotation.ClientCacheEntryCreated},
 * {@link org.infinispan.hotrod.annotation.ClientCacheEntryModified} or,
 * {@link org.infinispan.hotrod.annotation.ClientCacheEntryRemoved}.
 * The event parameter for any of these callbacks is always a {@link ClientCacheEntryCustomEvent},
 * and if needed, the event's {@link org.infinispan.hotrod.event.ClientCacheEntryCustomEvent#getType()}
 * can be queried to find out whether the originating event was the result of create,
 * modified or removed.
 *
 * @param  Type of customized event data. It needs to be marshallable.
