/**
* 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.
