/**
 * <p>
 * A context is an answer to the question "when". Other services can listen for
 * the activation and deactivation of contexts, and change their own state in
 * response to these changes. For example, Eclipse's key binding service listens
 * to context activation and deactivation to determine which key bindings should
 * be active.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * An instance of this interface can be obtained from an instance of
 * <code>ContextManager</code> for any identifier, whether or not an context
 * with that identifier is defined in the extension registry.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The handle-based nature of this API allows it to work well with runtime
 * plugin activation and deactivation. If a context is defined, that means that
 * its corresponding plug-in is active. If the plug-in is then deactivated, the
 * context will still exist but it will be undefined. An attempts to use an
 * undefined context will result in a <code>NotDefinedException</code> being
 * thrown.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * This class is not intended to be extended by clients.
