029/**
030 * Maintains the set of all the classes which would like to get notified
031 * when the Configuration is reloaded from the disk in the Online Configuration
032 * Change mechanism, which lets you update certain configuration properties
033 * on-the-fly, without having to restart the cluster.
034 *
035 * If a class has configuration properties which you would like to be able to
036 * change on-the-fly, do the following:
037 * 1. Implement the {@link ConfigurationObserver} interface. This would require
038 *    you to implement the
039 *    {@link ConfigurationObserver#onConfigurationChange(Configuration)}
040 *    method.  This is a callback that is used to notify your class' instance
041 *    that the configuration has changed. In this method, you need to check
042 *    if the new values for the properties that are of interest to your class
043 *    are different from the cached values. If yes, update them.
044 *
045 *    However, be careful with this. Certain properties might be trivially
046 *    mutable online, but others might not. Two properties might be trivially
047 *    mutable by themselves, but not when changed together. For example, if a
048 *    method uses properties "a" and "b" to make some decision, and is running
049 *    in parallel when the notifyOnChange() method updates "a", but hasn't
050 *    yet updated "b", it might make a decision on the basis of a new value of
051 *    "a", and an old value of "b". This might introduce subtle bugs. This
052 *    needs to be dealt on a case-by-case basis, and this class does not provide
053 *    any protection from such cases.
054 *
055 * 2. Register the appropriate instance of the class with the
056 *    {@link ConfigurationManager} instance, using the
057 *    {@link ConfigurationManager#registerObserver(ConfigurationObserver)}
058 *    method. Be careful not to do this in the constructor, as you might cause
059 *    the 'this' reference to escape. Use a factory method, or an initialize()
060 *    method which is called after the construction of the object.
061 *
062 * 3. Deregister the instance using the
063 *    {@link ConfigurationManager#deregisterObserver(ConfigurationObserver)}
064 *    method when it is going out of scope. In case you are not able to do that
065 *    for any reason, it is still okay, since entries for dead observers are
066 *    automatically collected during GC. But nonetheless, it is still a good
067 *    practice to deregister your observer, whenever possible.
