/**
* A command that knows its context. Its service parameters are automatically
* populated when {@link #setContext} is called, to make it easier to use via
* Java API calls (i.e., without invoking it via {@link CommandService#run}).
* This improves compile-time safety of downstream code that calls the command.
*
* Here is an example command execution using {@link CommandService#run}:
*
* {@code
* Future> future =
* commandService.run(findEdges.class, "display", myDisplay);
* CommandModule module = future.get(); // block till complete
* ImageDisplay outDisplay = (ImageDisplay) module.getOutput("display");
* }
*
* Note that {@code FindEdges} also has two other inputs, an
* {@code ImageDisplayService} and an {@code OverlayService}, which get
* automatically populated when the application context is injected.
*
*
* Here is the same command execution via direct Java calls:
*
* {@code
* FindEdges findEdges = new FindEdges();
* findEdges.setContext(context); // populates service parameters
* findEdges.setDisplay(myDisplay);
* findEdges.run(); // execute on the same thread
* ImageDisplay outDisplay = findEdges.getDisplay();
* }
*
* We believe the latter is more intuitive for most Java programmers, and so
* encourage commands to extend this class and provide API to use them directly.
*
*
* That said, there are times when you cannot extend a particular class (usually
* because you must extend a different class instead). In that case, you can
* still implement the {@link Command} interface and end up with a perfectly
* serviceable command. The consequence is only that other Java programmers will
* not be able to use the latter paradigm above to invoke your code in a fully
* compile-time-safe way.
