/**
* The nsIServiceManager manager interface provides a means to obtain
* global services in an application. The service manager depends on the
* repository to find and instantiate factories to obtain services.
*
* Users of the service manager must first obtain a pointer to the global
* service manager by calling NS_GetGlobalServiceManager. After that,
* they can request specific services by calling GetService. When they are
* finished with a service the release it by calling ReleaseService (instead
* of releasing the service object directly):
*
* nsICacheManager* cm;
* nsServiceManager::GetService(kCacheManagerCID, kICacheManagerIID, (nsISupports**)&cm);
*
* ... use cm, and then sometime later ...
*
* nsServiceManager::ReleaseService(kCacheManagerCID, cm);
*
* A user of a service may keep references to particular services indefinitely
* and only must call ReleaseService when it shuts down. However if the user
* wishes to voluntarily cooperate with the shutdown of the service it is
* using, it may supply an nsIShutdownListener to provide for asynchronous
* release of the services it is using. The shutdown listener's OnShutdown
* method will be called for a service that is being shut down, and it is
* its responsiblity to release references obtained from that service if at
* all possible.
*
* The process of shutting down a particular service is initiated by calling
* the service manager's ShutdownService method. This will iterate through
* all the registered shutdown listeners for the service being shut down, and
* then will attempt to unload the library associated with the service if
* possible. The status result of ShutdownService indicates whether the
* service was successfully shut down, failed, or was not in service.
*
* XXX QUESTIONS:
* - Should a "service" be more than nsISupports? Should it be a factory
* and/or have Startup(), Shutdown(), etc.
* - If the asynchronous OnShutdown operation gets called, does the user
* of a service still need to call ReleaseService? (Or should they _not_
* call it?)
