/**
  Defines the basic interface that all ConfigWatchdogs must support.
  
  <p>ConfigWatchdogs "watch" a log4j configuration source, and when
  new, changed configuration data is available, the watchdog will
  initiate a reconfiguration of the log4j settings using the new
  configuration data.
    
  <p>All watchdogs can have a name and configurator class.
  The configurator class will be used when reconfiguring using the 
  new data.  All watchdogs can be started and stopped.
  
  <p>Several different ConfigWatchdog classes are available in the
  org.apache.log4j.config package, such as FileWatchdog (watches a
  configuration file), HttpWatchdog (watches a configuration file 
  at a url location), and SocketWatchdog (watches a socket for 
  incoming configuration data).
  
  <p>If these are not sufficient, developers are encouraged
  to implement specific versions of ConfigWatchdogs for their 
  particular needs. This can be done by subclassing the WatchdogBase
  or URLWatchdogBase abstract classes, or to write their own class
  that implements the ConfigWatchdog interface.  Please see the
  above mentioned classes for more information.
