 /**
 29  
  * <p>A <b>ValveContext</b> is the mechanism by which a Valve can trigger the
 30  
  * execution of the next Valve in a Pipeline, without having to know anything
 31  
  * about the internal implementation mechanisms.  An instance of a class
 32  
  * implementing this interface is passed as a parameter to the
 33  
  * <code>Valve.invoke()</code> method of each executed Valve.</p>
 34  
  *
 35  
  * <p><strong>IMPLEMENTATION NOTE</strong>: It is up to the implementation of
 36  
  * ValveContext to ensure that simultaneous requests being processed (by
 37  
  * separate threads) through the same Pipeline do not interfere with each
 38  
  * other's flow of control.</p>
