/**
 * <p>
 * A class for adding support for reload operations in a generic way.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * A {@code ReloadingController} monitors a specific source and triggers reloading events if necessary. So it does not
 * perform reloading itself, but only sends out notifications when it thinks that this should be done. This allows for a
 * very generic setup in which different components involved in reloading are loosely coupled via events.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * A typical usage scenario is as follows:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>A {@code ReloadingController} instance is created and initialized with a {@link ReloadingDetector} object.</li>
 * <li>A number of {@link EventListener} objects for reloading events can be registered at the controller.</li>
 * <li>Now the controller's {@code checkForReloading()} method is called whenever a check is to be performed. This could
 * be done for instance by a timer in regular intervals or by any other means appropriate for a specific
 * application.</li>
 * <li>When a check reveals that a reload operation is necessary all registered event listeners are notified.</li>
 * <li>Typically one of the listeners is responsible to perform the actual reload operation. (How this is done is not in
 * the scope of the controller object.) After this has been done, the controller's {@code resetReloadingState()} method
 * must be called. It tells the controller that the last notification has been processed and that new checks are
 * possible again. It is important that this method is called. Otherwise, {@code checkForReloading()} will not do any
 * new checks or send out event notifications any more.</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * This class can be accessed from multiple threads concurrently. It shields the associated {@link ReloadingDetector}
 * object for concurrent access, so that a concrete detector implementation does not have to be thread-safe.
 * </p>
