/**
* Marker superinterface indicating that a bean is eligible to be
* notified by the Spring container of a particular framework object
* through a callback-style method. Actual method signature is
* determined by individual subinterfaces, but should typically
* consist of just one void-returning method that accepts a single
* argument.
*
* <p>Note that merely implementing {@link Aware} provides no default
* functionality. Rather, processing must be done explicitly, for example
* in a {@link org.springframework.beans.factory.config.BeanPostProcessor BeanPostProcessor}.
* Refer to {@link org.springframework.context.support.ApplicationContextAwareProcessor}
* and {@link org.springframework.beans.factory.support.AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory}
* for examples of processing {@code *Aware} interface callbacks.
