/**
* The facility to create mocks.
*
* By default, an internal cglib/asm/objenesis based implementation is used.
*
* {@code MockMaker} is an extension point that makes it possible to use custom dynamic proxies
* and avoid using the default cglib/asm/objenesis implementation.
* For example, the android users can use a MockMaker that can work with Dalvik virtual machine
* and hence bring Mockito to android apps developers.
*
* Using the extension point
*
* Suppose you wrote an extension to create mocks with some Awesome library, in order to tell
* Mockito to use it you need to put in your classpath:
*
* - The implementation itself, for example
org.awesome.mockito.AwesomeMockMaker
that extends the MockMaker
.
* - A file "
mockito-extensions/org.mockito.plugins.MockMaker
". The content of this file is
* exactly a one line with the qualified name: org.awesome.mockito.AwesomeMockMaker
.
*
*
* Note that if several mockito-extensions/org.mockito.plugins.MockMaker
files exists in the classpath
* Mockito will only use the first returned by the standard {@link ClassLoader#getResource} mechanism.
*
* @see org.mockito.mock.MockCreationSettings
* @see org.mockito.invocation.MockHandler

* - Your proxy object should carry the {@code hander} with it. For example, if you generate byte code
* to create the proxy you could generate an extra field to keep the {@code handler} with the generated object.
* Your implementation of {@code MockMaker} is required to provide this instance of {@code handler} when
