/**
* <p>
* The Builder interface is designed to designate a class as a <em>builder
* object in the Builder design pattern. Builders are capable of creating and
* configuring objects or results that normally take multiple steps to construct
* or are very complex to derive.
* </p>
*
* <p>
* The builder interface defines a single method, {@link #build()}, that
* classes must implement. The result of this method should be the final
* configured object or result after all building operations are performed.
* </p>
*
* <p>
* It is a recommended practice that the methods supplied to configure the
* object or result being built return a reference to {@code this} so that
* method calls can be chained together.
