/**
 * Interface to be implemented by any object that wishes to be notified
 * of the ApplicationContext that it runs in.
 *
 * <p>Implementing this interface makes sense for example when an object
 * requires access to a set of collaborating beans. Note that configuration
 * via bean references is preferable to implementing this interface just
 * for bean lookup purposes.
 *
 * <p>This interface can also be implemented if an object needs access to file
 * resources, i.e. wants to call getResource, or access to the MessageSource.
 * However, it is preferable to implement the more specific ResourceLoaderAware
 * interface or receive a reference to the MessageSource bean in that scenario.
 *
 * <p>Note that Resource dependencies can also be exposed as bean properties
 * of type Resource, populated via Strings with automatic type conversion by
 * the bean factory. This removes the need for implementing any callback
 * interface just for the purpose of accessing a specific file resource.
 *
 * <p>ApplicationObjectSupport is a convenience base class for
 * application objects, implementing this interface.
 * 
 * <p>For a list of all bean lifecycle methods, see the BeanFactory javadocs.
