/**
 *  The call stack interface required by xdc.rov.server.
 *
 *  The xdc.rov.server relies on a Java "backend" to provide a "controller"
 *  which, in turn, provides up a "call stack" instance that enables the
 *  server to parse the call stack.
 *
 *  This interface should be moved into xdc.rov.server if we fix xdc.rov.Model
 *  to require RTSC instances for Model.start.  Otherwise, if we replace the
 *  RTSC instances with Java instance objects, we should keep this interface
 *  in xdc.rov - were it specifes the requirements for xdc.rov.Model.
