/**
 * The {@code ResourceResolver} defines the API which may be used
 * to resolve {@link org.apache.sling.api.resource.Resource} objects and
 * work with such resources like creating, editing or updating them.
 * The resource resolver is available to the request processing servlet
 * through the
 * {@link org.apache.sling.api.SlingHttpServletRequest#getResourceResolver()}
 * method. A resource resolver can also be created through the
 * {@link ResourceResolverFactory} service.
 * <p>
 * The {@code ResourceResolver} is also an {@link Adaptable} to get
 * adapters to other types. A JCR based resource resolver might support adapting
 * to the JCR Session used by the resolver to access the JCR Repository.
 * <p>
 * A {@code ResourceResolver} is generally not thread safe! As a
 * consequence, an application which uses the resolver, its returned resources
 * and/or objects resulting from adapting either the resolver or a resource,
 * must provide proper synchronization to ensure no more than one thread
 * concurrently operates against a single resolver, resource or resulting
 * objects.
 * <p>
 * <b>Accessing Resources</b>
 * <p>
 * This interface defines two kinds of methods to access resources: The
 * <code>resolve</code> methods and the <code>getResource</code> methods. The
 * difference lies in the algorithm applied to find the requested resource and
 * in the behavior in case a resource cannot be found:
 * <table>
 *     <caption>Accessing Resources</caption>
 * <tr>
 * <th>Method Kind</th>
 * <th>Access Algorithm</th>
 * <th>Missing Resource</th>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td>resolve</td>
 * <td>Path is always assumed to be absolute. Uses elaborate resource resolution
 * algorithm. This kind of method is intended to resolve request URLs to
 * resources.</td>
 * <td>Returns {@link NonExistingResource}</td>
 * </tr>
 * <tr>
 * <td>getResource</td>
 * <td>Directly access resources with absolute path. For relative paths, the
 * {@link #getSearchPath() search path} is applied. This method is intended to
 * be used by request processing scripts to access further resources as
 * required.</td>
 * <td>Returns <code>null</code></td>
 * </tr>
 * </table>
 * <p>
 * <b>Resource Handling</b>
 * <p>
 * A resource resolver provides various methods to manage resources. All changes
 * are transient and require to commit them at the end.
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link #create(Resource, String, Map)} for creating a new resource.
 * <li>{@link #delete(Resource)} to delete a resource.
 * <li>{@link #adaptTo(Class)} allows to adapt a resource to a {@link ModifiableValueMap}
 * to update a resource.
 * <li>{@link #move(String, String)} to move resources.
 * <li>{@link #copy(String, String)} to copy resources.
 * <li>{@link #commit()} commits all staged changes.
 * <li>{@link #revert()} reverts all staged changes.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * The resource tree accessible through the resource resolver is backed by one or
 * more {@link org.apache.sling.spi.resource.provider.ResourceProvider}s. In
 * general it is advisable to limit transient changes to a single resource provider.
 * The {@link #commit()} is not using a two phase commit, therefore if there
 * is more than one resource provider involved and one of them fails in persisting,
 * changes already committed to other providers are not reverted.
 * <p>
 * <b>Lifecycle</b>
 * <p>
 * A Resource Resolver has a life cycle which begins with the creation of the
 * Resource Resolver using any of the factory methods and ends with calling the
 * {@link #close()} method. It is very important to call the {@link #close()}
 * method once the resource resolver is not used any more to ensure any system
 * resources are properly cleaned up.
 *
 * A Resource Resolver may also be closed implicitly if the {@link ResourceResolverFactory}
 * which was used to create this resolver is no longer active.
 * <p>
 * To check whether a Resource Resolver can still be used, the {@link #isLive()}
 * method can be called.
 * <p>
 * A <code>ResourceResolver</code> is only valid for as long as the
 * <code>ResourceResolverFactory</code> that created this instance exists. The
 * same applies in general to all objects returned by this instance,
 * especially for all resources. If the <code>ResourceResolverFactory</code>
 * does not exist anymore, the resource resolver instances becomes invalid.
 * <p>
 * <b>Resource Resolver Attributes</b>
 * <p>
 * The authentication info properties provided to the
 * {@link ResourceResolverFactory#getResourceResolver(Map)},
 * {@link ResourceResolverFactory#getAdministrativeResourceResolver(Map)}, or
 * {@link #clone(Map)} are available through the {@link #getAttributeNames()}
 * and {@link #getAttribute(String)} methods with the exception of security
 * sensitive properties like {@link ResourceResolverFactory#PASSWORD} which is
 * not exposed.
