/**
 * <p>
 * Base class required for all Vaadin applications. This class provides all the
 * basic services required by Vaadin. These services allow external discovery
 * and manipulation of the user, {@link com.vaadin.ui.Window windows} and
 * themes, and starting and stopping the application.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * As mentioned, all Vaadin applications must inherit this class. However, this
 * is almost all of what one needs to do to create a fully functional
 * application. The only thing a class inheriting the <code>Application</code>
 * needs to do is implement the <code>init</code> method where it creates the
 * windows it needs to perform its function. Note that all applications must
 * have at least one window: the main window. The first unnamed window
 * constructed by an application automatically becomes the main window which
 * behaves just like other windows with one exception: when accessing windows
 * using URLs the main window corresponds to the application URL whereas other
 * windows correspond to a URL gotten by catenating the window's name to the
 * application URL.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * See the class <code>com.vaadin.demo.HelloWorld</code> for a simple example of
 * a fully working application.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * <strong>Window access.</strong> <code>Application</code> provides methods to
 * list, add and remove the windows it contains.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * <strong>Execution control.</strong> This class includes method to start and
 * finish the execution of the application. Being finished means basically that
 * no windows will be available from the application anymore.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * <strong>Theme selection.</strong> The theme selection process allows a theme
 * to be specified at three different levels. When a window's theme needs to be
 * found out, the window itself is queried for a preferred theme. If the window
 * does not prefer a specific theme, the application containing the window is
 * queried. If neither the application prefers a theme, the default theme for
 * the {@link com.vaadin.terminal.Terminal terminal} is used. The terminal
 * always defines a default theme.
 * </p>
