/**
* Annotates a class that acts as a Factory Configuration Adapter Service. For each new <code>Config Admin</code> factory configuration matching
* the specified factoryPid, an instance of this service will be created.
* The adapter will be registered with the specified interface, and with the specified adapter service properties.
* Depending on the <code>propagate</code> parameter, every public factory configuration properties
* (which don't start with ".") will be propagated along with the adapter service properties. <p>
*
* Like in &#64;{@link ConfigurationDependency}, you can optionally specify the meta types of your
* configurations for Web Console GUI customization (configuration heading/descriptions/default values/etc ...).
*
* <h3>Usage Examples</h3>
* Here, a "Dictionary" service instance is instantiated for each existing factory configuration
* instances matching the factory pid "DictionaryServiceFactory".
* <blockquote>
* <pre>
* &#64;FactoryConfigurationAdapterService(factoryPid="DictionaryServiceFactory", updated="updated")
* public class DictionaryImpl implements DictionaryService
* {
* &#47;**
* * The key of our config admin dictionary language.
* *&#47;
* final static String LANG = "lang";
*
* &#47;**
* * The key of our config admin dictionary values.
* *&#47;
* final static String WORDS = "words";
*
* &#47;**
* * We store all configured words in a thread-safe data structure, because ConfigAdmin
* * may invoke our updated method at any time.
* *&#47;
* private CopyOnWriteArrayList&#60;String&#62; m_words = new CopyOnWriteArrayList&#60;String&#62;();
*
* &#47;**
* * Our Dictionary language.
* *&#47;
* private String m_lang;
*
* protected void updated(Dictionary&#60;String, ?&#62; config) {
* m_lang = (String) config.get(LANG);
* m_words.clear();
* String[] words = (String[]) config.get(WORDS);
* for (String word : words) {
* m_words.add(word);
* }
* }
* ...
* }
* </pre>
* </blockquote>
* Here, this is the same example as above, but using meta types:
*
* <blockquote>
* <pre>
* &#64;FactoryConfigurationAdapterService(
* factoryPid="DictionaryServiceFactory",
* propagate=true,
* updated="updated",
* heading="Dictionary Services",
* description="Declare here some Dictionary instances, allowing to instantiates some DictionaryService services for a given dictionary language",
* metadata={
* &#64;PropertyMetaData(
* heading="Dictionary Language",
* description="Declare here the language supported by this dictionary. " +
* "This property will be propagated with the Dictionary Service properties.",
* defaults={"en"},
* id=DictionaryImpl.LANG,
* cardinality=0),
* &#64;PropertyMetaData(
* heading="Dictionary words",
* description="Declare here the list of words supported by this dictionary. This properties starts with a Dot and won't be propagated with Dictionary OSGi service properties.",
* defaults={"hello", "world"},
* id=DictionaryImpl.WORDS,
* cardinality=Integer.MAX_VALUE)
* }
* )
* public class DictionaryImpl implements DictionaryService
* {
* &#47;**
* * The key of our config admin dictionary language.
* *&#47;
* final static String LANG = "lang";
*
* &#47;**
* * The key of our config admin dictionary values.
* *&#47;
* final static String WORDS = "words";
*
* &#47;**
* * We store all configured words in a thread-safe data structure, because ConfigAdmin
* * may invoke our updated method at any time.
* *&#47;
* private CopyOnWriteArrayList&#60;String&#62; m_words = new CopyOnWriteArrayList&#60;String&#62;();
*
* &#47;**
* * Our Dictionary language.
* *&#47;
* private String m_lang;
*
* protected void updated(Dictionary&#60;String, ?&#62; config) {
* m_lang = (String) config.get(LANG);
* m_words.clear();
* String[] words = (String[]) config.get(WORDS);
* for (String word : words) {
* m_words.add(word);
* }
* }
*
* ...
* }
* </pre>
