/**
* This interface is implemented by the ModelMBeanInfo for every ModelMBean. An implementation of this interface
* must be shipped with every JMX Agent.
* <P>
* Java resources wishing to be manageable instantiate the ModelMBean using the MBeanServer's
* createMBean method. The resource then sets the ModelMBeanInfo and Descriptors for the ModelMBean
* instance. The attributes, operations, and notifications exposed via the ModelMBeanInfo for the
* ModelMBean comprise the management interface and are accessible
* from MBeans, connectors/adaptors like other MBeans. Through the Descriptors, values and methods in
* the managed application can be defined and mapped to attributes and operations of the ModelMBean.
* This mapping can be defined during development in a file or dynamically and
* programmatically at runtime.
* <P>
* Every ModelMBean which is instantiated in the MBeanServer becomes manageable:
* its attributes, operations, and notifications
* become remotely accessible through the connectors/adaptors connected to that MBeanServer.
* A Java object cannot be registered in the MBeanServer unless it is a JMX compliant MBean.
* By instantiating a ModelMBean, resources are guaranteed that the MBean is valid.
*
* MBeanException and RuntimeOperationsException must be thrown on every public method. This allows
* for wrapping exceptions from distributed communications (RMI, EJB, etc.)
