/**
 * A <code>PersistenceCapable</code> class that provides callback methods for life cycle events
 * implements this interface.
 *
 * <p>For JDO 2.0, <code>InstanceCallbacks</code> has been refactored to extend four other
 * interfaces, without changing any of the methods or semantics. This allows fine-grained control
 * over callbacks, for example to allow a class to implement the load callback without implementing
 * any of the other callbacks. For backward compatibility with JDO 1.0, the <code>InstanceCallbacks
 * </code> interface is preserved.
 *
 * <p>Classes which include non-persistent fields whose values depend on the values of persistent
 * fields require callbacks on specific JDO instance life cycle events in order to correctly
 * populate the values in these fields.
 *
 * <p>The callbacks might also be used if the persistent instances need to be put into the runtime
 * infrastructure of the application. For example, a persistent instance might notify other
 * instances on changes to state. The persistent instance might be in a list of managed instances.
 * When the persistent instance is made hollow, it can no longer generate change events, and the
 * persistent instance should be removed from the list of managed instances.
 *
 * <p>To implement this, the application programmer would implement <code>jdoPostLoad</code> to put
 * itself into the list of managed instances, and implement <code>jdoPreClear</code> to remove
 * itself from the list. With JDO 1.0, the domain class would be declared to implement <code>
 * InstanceCallbacks</code>. With JDO 2.0, the domain class would be declared to implement <code>
 * javax.jdo.listener.LoadCallback</code> and <code>javax.jdo.listener.ClearCallback</code>.
 *
 * <p>Note that JDO does not manage the state of non-persistent fields, and when a JDO instance
 * transitions to hollow, JDO clears the persistent fields. It is the programmer's responsibility to
 * clear non-persistent fields so that garbage collection of referred instances can occur.

 * @since 1.0
