* The user doclet must implement this interface, as described in the
* <a href="package-summary.html#package.description">package description</a>.
* Each implementation of a Doclet must provide a public no-argument constructor
* to be used by tools to instantiate the doclet. The tool infrastructure will
* interact with classes implementing this interface as follows:
* <ol>
* <li> The tool will create an instance of a doclet using the no-arg constructor
* of the doclet class.
* <li> Next, the tool calls the {@link #init init} method with an appropriate locale
* and reporter.
* <li> Afterwards, the tool calls {@link #getSupportedOptions getSupportedOptions},
* and {@link #getSupportedSourceVersion getSupportedSourceVersion}.
* These methods are only called once.
* <li> As appropriate, the tool calls the {@link #run run} method on the doclet
* object, giving it a DocletEnvironment object, from which the doclet can determine
* the elements to be included in the documentation.
* </ol>
* <p>
* If a doclet object is created and used without the above protocol being followed,
* then the doclet's behavior is not defined by this interface specification.
* <p> To start the doclet, pass {@code -doclet} followed by the fully-qualified
* name of the entry point class (i.e. the implementation of this interface) on
* the javadoc tool command line.
