/**
 * Represents a notification emitted by the MBean Server through the MBeanServerDelegate MBean.
 * The MBean Server emits the following types of notifications: MBean registration, MBean
 * unregistration.
 * <P>
 * To receive MBeanServerNotifications, you need to register a listener with
 * the {@link MBeanServerDelegate MBeanServerDelegate} MBean
 * that represents the MBeanServer. The ObjectName of the MBeanServerDelegate is
 * {@link MBeanServerDelegate#DELEGATE_NAME}, which is
 * <CODE>JMImplementation:type=MBeanServerDelegate.
 *
 * <p>The following code prints a message every time an MBean is registered
 * or unregistered in the MBean Server {@code mbeanServer}:</p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * private static final NotificationListener printListener = new NotificationListener() {
 *     public void handleNotification(Notification n, Object handback) {
 *         if (!(n instanceof MBeanServerNotification)) {
 *             System.out.println("Ignored notification of class " + n.getClass().getName());
 *             return;
 *         }
 *         MBeanServerNotification mbsn = (MBeanServerNotification) n;
 *         String what;
 *         if (n.getType().equals(MBeanServerNotification.REGISTRATION_NOTIFICATION))
 *             what = "MBean registered";
 *         else if (n.getType().equals(MBeanServerNotification.UNREGISTRATION_NOTIFICATION))
 *             what = "MBean unregistered";
 *         else
 *             what = "Unknown type " + n.getType();
 *         System.out.println("Received MBean Server notification: " + what + ": " +
 *                 mbsn.getMBeanName());
 *     }
 * };
 *
 * ...
 *     mbeanServer.addNotificationListener(
 *             MBeanServerDelegate.DELEGATE_NAME, printListener, null, null);
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p id="group">
 * An MBean which is not an {@link MBeanServerDelegate} may also emit
 * MBeanServerNotifications. In particular, there is a convention for
 * MBeans to emit an MBeanServerNotification for a group of MBeans.</p>
 *
 * <p>An MBeanServerNotification emitted to denote the registration or
 * unregistration of a group of MBeans has the following characteristics:
 * <ul>
Its {@linkplain Notification#getType() notification type} is
 *     {@code "JMX.mbean.registered.group"} or
 *     {@code "JMX.mbean.unregistered.group"}, which can also be written {@link
 *     MBeanServerNotification#REGISTRATION_NOTIFICATION}{@code + ".group"} or
 *     {@link
 *     MBeanServerNotification#UNREGISTRATION_NOTIFICATION}{@code + ".group"}.
 * </li>
 * <li>Its {@linkplain #getMBeanName() MBean name} is an ObjectName pattern
 *     that selects the set (or a superset) of the MBeans being registered
 *     or unregistered</li>
 * <li>Its {@linkplain Notification#getUserData() user data} can optionally
 *     be set to an array of ObjectNames containing the names of all MBeans
 *     being registered or unregistered.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>
 * MBeans which emit these group registration/unregistration notifications will
 * declare them in their {@link MBeanInfo#getNotifications()
 * MBeanNotificationInfo}.
 * </p>
