/**
 * This interface represents a generic interceptor.
 *
 * 

A generic interceptor can intercept runtime events that occur * within a base program. Those events are materialized by (reified * in) joinpoints. Runtime joinpoints can be invocations, field * access, exceptions... * *

This interface is not used directly. Use the sub-interfaces * to intercept specific events. For instance, the following class * implements some specific interceptors in order to implement a * debugger: * *

 * class DebuggingInterceptor implements MethodInterceptor,
 *     ConstructorInterceptor {
 *
 *   Object invoke(MethodInvocation i) throws Throwable {
 *     debug(i.getMethod(), i.getThis(), i.getArgs());
 *     return i.proceed();
 *   }
 *
 *   Object construct(ConstructorInvocation i) throws Throwable {
 *     debug(i.getConstructor(), i.getThis(), i.getArgs());
 *     return i.proceed();
 *   }
 *
 *   void debug(AccessibleObject ao, Object this, Object value) {
 *     ...
 *   }
 * }
 *
