/**
 * This is the concrete implementation of the Turbine
 * Pull Service.
 * <p>
 * These are tools that are placed in the context by the service
 * These tools will be made available to all your
 * templates. You list the tools in the following way:
 * <p>
 * <pre>
 * tool.&lt;scope&gt;.&lt;id&gt; = &lt;classname&gt;
 *
 * &lt;scope&gt;      is the tool scope: global, request, session,
 *              authorized or persistent (see below for more details)
 * &lt;id&gt;         is the name of the tool in the context
 *
 * You can configure the tools in this way:
 * tool.&lt;id&gt;.&lt;parameter&gt; = &lt;value&gt;
 *
 * So if you find "global", "request", "session" or "persistent" as second
 * part, it is a configuration to put a tool into the toolbox, else it is a
 * tool specific configuration.
 *
 * For example:
 *
 * tool.global.ui    = org.apache.turbine.util.pull.UIManager
 * tool.global.mm    = org.apache.turbine.util.pull.MessageManager
 * tool.request.link = org.apache.turbine.services.pull.tools.TemplateLink
 * tool.request.page = org.apache.turbine.util.template.TemplatePageAttributes
 *
 * Then:
 *
 * tool.ui.skin = default
 *
 * configures the value of "skin" for the "ui" tool.
 *
 * Tools are accessible in all templates by the <id> given
 * to the tool. So for the above listings the UIManager would
 * be available as $ui, the MessageManager as $mm, the TemplateLink
 * as $link and the TemplatePageAttributes as $page.
 *
 * You should avoid using tool names called "global", "request",
 * "session" or "persistent" because of clashes with the possible Scopes.
 *
 * Scopes:
 *
 *  global:     tool is instantiated once and that instance is available
 *              to all templates for all requests. Tool must be threadsafe.
 *
 *  request:    tool is instantiated once for each request (although the
 *              PoolService is used to recycle instances). Tool need not
 *              be threadsafe.
 *
 *  session:    tool is instantiated once for each user session, and is
 *              stored in the session.  These tools do not need to be
 *              threadsafe.
 *
 *  authorized: tool is instantiated once for each user session once the
 *              user logs in. After this, it is a normal session tool.
 *
 *  persistent: tool is instantitated once for each user session once
 *              the user logs in and is is stored in the user's permanent
 *              hashtable.
 *              This means for a logged in user the tool will be persisted
 *              in the user's objectdata. Tool should be Serializable.  These
 *              tools do not need to be threadsafe.
 *              <b>persistent scope tools are deprecated in 2.3</b>
 *
 * Defaults: none
