/** Annotation that can be applied to {@link Runnable} or 
 * {@link Callable}{@code } subclasses with default constructor
 * which will be invoked during shutdown sequence or when the module
 * is being shutdown.
 * 
 * First of all call callables are consulted to allow or deny proceeding
 * with the shutdown:
 * 
 * {@code @OnStop}
 * public class AskTheUser implements Callable<Boolean> {
 *   public Boolean call() {
 *     return isItOKToShutdown() ? Boolean.TRUE : Boolean.FALSE;
 *   }
 * }
 * 
 * If the shutdown is approved, all runnables registered are acknowledged and
 * can perform the shutdown cleanup. The runnables are invoked in parallel. 
 * It is guaranteed their execution is finished before the shutdown sequence
 * is over:
 *  * {@code @OnStop}
 * public class Cleanup implements Runnable {
 *   public void run() {
 *     // do some cleanup
 *   }
 * }
 * 
 *
 * @since 7.29
