* The interface for a javac plug-in.
*
* <p>The javac plug-in mechanism allows a user to specify one or more plug-ins
* on the javac command line, to be started soon after the compilation
* has begun. Plug-ins are identified by a user-friendly name. Each plug-in that
* is started will be passed an array of strings, which may be used to
* provide the plug-in with values for any desired options or other arguments.
*
* <p>Plug-ins are located via a {@link ServiceLoader},
* using the same class path as annotation processors (i.e.
* {@link StandardLocation#ANNOTATION_PROCESSOR_PATH ANNOTATION_PROCESSOR_PATH} or
* {@code -processorpath}).
*
* <p>It is expected that a typical plug-in will simply register a
* {@link TaskListener} to be informed of events during the execution
* of the compilation, and that the rest of the work will be done
* by the task listener.
