/**
* Common interface for component life cycle methods. Catalina components
* may implement this interface (as well as the appropriate interface(s) for
* the functionality they support) in order to provide a consistent mechanism
* to start and stop the component.
*
* The valid state transitions for components that support Lifecycle are:
*
* init()
* NEW ->-- INITIALIZING
* ||| | --------------------<-----------------------
* ||| |auto | |
* ||| | start() | auto auto stop() |
* ||| INITIALIZED -->-- STARTING_PREP -->- STARTING -->- STARTED -->--- |
* ||| ^ | | |
* ||| start() | | | |
* ||----------->-------------------- | | |
* || | | |
* |--- auto auto | | |
* | | ---------<----- MUST_STOP ---------------------<-- | |
* | | | | |
* | | ---------------------------<-------------------------------- ^
* | | | |
* | | | auto auto start() |
* | | STOPPING_PREP ------>----- STOPPING ------>----- STOPPED ---->------
* | | ^ | | ^
* | | | auto | | |
* | | |stop() MUST_DESTROY------<------- | |
* | | | | | |
* | | | |auto | |
* | | | destroy() \|/ destroy() | |
* | | FAILED ---->------ DESTROYING ---<----------------- |
* | | ^ | |
* | | destroy() | |auto |
* | ----------------------------- \|/ |
* | DESTROYED |
* | |
* | stop() |
* --->------------------------------>------------------------------
*
* Any state can transition to FAILED.
*
* Calling start() while a component is in states STARTING_PREP, STARTING or
* STARTED has no effect.
*
* Calling start() while a component is in state NEW will cause init() to be
* called immediately after the start() method is entered.
*
* Calling stop() while a component is in states STOPPING_PREP, STOPPING or
* STOPPED has no effect.
*
* Calling stop() while a component is in state NEW transitions the component
* to STOPPED. This is typically encountered when a component fails to start and
* does not start all its sub-components. When the component is stopped, it will
* try to stop all sub-components - even those it didn't start.
*
* MUST_STOP is used to indicate that the {@link #stop()} should be called on
* the component as soon as {@link #start()} exits. It is typically used when a
* component has failed to start.
*
* MUST_DESTROY is used to indicate that the {@link #stop()} should be called on
* the component as soon as {@link #stop()} exits. It is typically used when a
* component is not designed to be restarted.
*
* Attempting any other transition will throw {@link LifecycleException}.
*
*
* The {@link LifecycleEvent}s fired during state changes are defined in the
* methods that trigger the changed. No {@link LifecycleEvent}s are fired if the
* attempted transition is not valid.
*
* TODO: Not all components may transition from STOPPED to STARTING_PREP
