/**
* The management interface for the memory system of
* the Java virtual machine.
*
* <p> A Java virtual machine has a single instance of the implementation
* class of this interface. This instance implementing this interface is
* an <a href="ManagementFactory.html#MXBean">MXBean</a>
* that can be obtained by calling
* the {@link ManagementFactory#getMemoryMXBean} method or
* from the {@link ManagementFactory#getPlatformMBeanServer
* platform <tt>MBeanServer</tt>} method.
*
* <p>The <tt>ObjectName</tt> for uniquely identifying the MXBean for
* the memory system within an MBeanServer is:
* <blockquote>
* {@link ManagementFactory#MEMORY_MXBEAN_NAME
* <tt>java.lang:type=Memory</tt>}
* </blockquote>
*
* It can be obtained by calling the
* {@link PlatformManagedObject#getObjectName} method.
*
* <h3> Memory </h3>
* The memory system of the Java virtual machine manages
* the following kinds of memory:
*
* <h3> 1. Heap </h3>
* The Java virtual machine has a <i>heap</i> that is the runtime
* data area from which memory for all class instances and arrays
* are allocated. It is created at the Java virtual machine start-up.
* Heap memory for objects is reclaimed by an automatic memory management
* system which is known as a <i>garbage collector</i>.
*
* <p>The heap may be of a fixed size or may be expanded and shrunk.
* The memory for the heap does not need to be contiguous.
*
* <h3> 2. Non-Heap Memory</h3>
* The Java virtual machine manages memory other than the heap
* (referred as <i>non-heap memory</i>).
*
* <p> The Java virtual machine has a <i>method area</i> that is shared
* among all threads.
* The method area belongs to non-heap memory. It stores per-class structures
* such as a runtime constant pool, field and method data, and the code for
* methods and constructors. It is created at the Java virtual machine
* start-up.
*
* <p> The method area is logically part of the heap but a Java virtual
* machine implementation may choose not to either garbage collect
* or compact it. Similar to the heap, the method area may be of a
* fixed size or may be expanded and shrunk. The memory for the
* method area does not need to be contiguous.
*
* <p>In addition to the method area, a Java virtual machine
* implementation may require memory for internal processing or
* optimization which also belongs to non-heap memory.
* For example, the JIT compiler requires memory for storing the native
* machine code translated from the Java virtual machine code for
* high performance.
*
* <h3>Memory Pools and Memory Managers</h3>
* {@link MemoryPoolMXBean Memory pools} and
* {@link MemoryManagerMXBean memory managers} are the abstract entities
* that monitor and manage the memory system
* of the Java virtual machine.
*
* <p>A memory pool represents a memory area that the Java virtual machine
* manages. The Java virtual machine has at least one memory pool
* and it may create or remove memory pools during execution.
* A memory pool can belong to either the heap or the non-heap memory.
*
* <p>A memory manager is responsible for managing one or more memory pools.
* The garbage collector is one type of memory manager responsible
* for reclaiming memory occupied by unreachable objects. A Java virtual
* machine may have one or more memory managers. It may
* add or remove memory managers during execution.
* A memory pool can be managed by more than one memory manager.
*
* <h3>Memory Usage Monitoring</h3>
*
* Memory usage is a very important monitoring attribute for the memory system.
* The memory usage, for example, could indicate:
* <ul>
* <li>the memory usage of an application,</li>
* <li>the workload being imposed on the automatic memory management system,</li>
* <li>potential memory leakage.</li>
* </ul>
*
* <p>
* The memory usage can be monitored in three ways:
* <ul>
* <li>Polling</li>
* <li>Usage Threshold Notification</li>
* <li>Collection Usage Threshold Notification</li>
* </ul>
*
* Details are specified in the {@link MemoryPoolMXBean} interface.
*
* <p>The memory usage monitoring mechanism is intended for load-balancing
* or workload distribution use. For example, an application would stop
* receiving any new workload when its memory usage exceeds a
* certain threshold. It is not intended for an application to detect
* and recover from a low memory condition.
*
* <h3>Notifications</h3>
*
* <p>This <tt>MemoryMXBean</tt> is a
* {@link javax.management.NotificationEmitter NotificationEmitter}
* that emits two types of memory {@link javax.management.Notification
* notifications} if any one of the memory pools
* supports a <a href="MemoryPoolMXBean.html#UsageThreshold">usage threshold</a>
* or a <a href="MemoryPoolMXBean.html#CollectionThreshold">collection usage
* threshold</a> which can be determined by calling the
* {@link MemoryPoolMXBean#isUsageThresholdSupported} and
* {@link MemoryPoolMXBean#isCollectionUsageThresholdSupported} methods.
* <ul>
* <li>{@link MemoryNotificationInfo#MEMORY_THRESHOLD_EXCEEDED
* usage threshold exceeded notification} - for notifying that
* the memory usage of a memory pool is increased and has reached
* or exceeded its
* <a href="MemoryPoolMXBean.html#UsageThreshold"> usage threshold</a> value.
* </li>
* <li>{@link MemoryNotificationInfo#MEMORY_COLLECTION_THRESHOLD_EXCEEDED
* collection usage threshold exceeded notification} - for notifying that
* the memory usage of a memory pool is greater than or equal to its
* <a href="MemoryPoolMXBean.html#CollectionThreshold">
* collection usage threshold</a> after the Java virtual machine
* has expended effort in recycling unused objects in that
* memory pool.</li>
* </ul>
*
* <p>
* The notification emitted is a {@link javax.management.Notification}
* instance whose {@link javax.management.Notification#setUserData
* user data} is set to a {@link CompositeData CompositeData}
* that represents a {@link MemoryNotificationInfo} object
* containing information about the memory pool when the notification
* was constructed. The <tt>CompositeData</tt> contains the attributes
* as described in {@link MemoryNotificationInfo#from
* MemoryNotificationInfo}.
*
* <hr>
* <h3>NotificationEmitter</h3>
* The <tt>MemoryMXBean</tt> object returned by
* {@link ManagementFactory#getMemoryMXBean} implements
* the {@link javax.management.NotificationEmitter NotificationEmitter}
* interface that allows a listener to be registered within the
* <tt>MemoryMXBean</tt> as a notification listener.
*
* Below is an example code that registers a <tt>MyListener</tt> to handle
* notification emitted by the <tt>MemoryMXBean</tt>.
*
* <blockquote><pre>
* class MyListener implements javax.management.NotificationListener {
* public void handleNotification(Notification notif, Object handback) {
* // handle notification
* ....
* }
* }
*
* MemoryMXBean mbean = ManagementFactory.getMemoryMXBean();
* NotificationEmitter emitter = (NotificationEmitter) mbean;
* MyListener listener = new MyListener();
* emitter.addNotificationListener(listener, null, null);
* </pre></blockquote>
