/**
 * Author : Tuan Nguyen tuan08@ms.sourceforge.net Wed, Feb 18, 2004 @ 21:33 If
 * the other service or a third party want to customize their code to handle a
 * membership event, the event can be new or remove. They should make a class
 * that extends from this class and register the listener with the organization
 * service. There are 2 ways to register a listener with the service. a) To do
 * it programatically: [..] import org.exoplatform.container.PortalContainer ;
 * import org.exoplatform.services.organization.OrganizationService ; [..]
 * MembershipEventListener listener = new MyMembershipEventListener(..) ;
 * PortalContainer pcontainer = PortalContainer.getInstance() ;
 * OrganizationService service = (OrganizationService)
 * pcontainer.getInstanceOfType(OrganizationService.class) ;
 * service.getMembershipHandler().addMembershipEventListener(listener) ; b)
 * Register by the xml configuration: You need to create a
 * my.package.MyMembershipEventListener that extends this class and add a
 * conf/portal/configuration.xml to the classpath. The configuration.xml can be
 * in a jar file. The file should contain the following configuraiton:
 * 
 * <pre>
 * <configuration>
 *   [..]
 *   <external-component-plugins>
 *     <target-component>org.exoplatform.services.organization.OrganizationService</target-component>
 *     <component-plugin>
 *        <name>my.membership.listener</name>
 *        <set-method>addListenerPlugin</set-method>
 *        <type>my.package.MyMembershipEventListener</type>
 *        <description>your listener description</description>
 *      </component-plugin>
 *  </external-component-plugins>
 *  [...]
 * /configuration>
 * </pre>
