30 void acceptProblem(IProblem problem);
33 * Notification sent before starting the problem detection process.
34 * Typically, this would tell a problem collector to clear previously recorded problems.
36 void beginReporting();
39 * Notification sent after having completed problem detection process.
40 * Typically, this would tell a problem collector that no more problems should be expected in this
46 * Predicate allowing the problem requestor to signal whether or not it is currently
47 * interested by problem reports. When answering <code>false</false>, problem will
48 * not be discovered any more until the next iteration.
50 * This predicate will be invoked once prior to each problem detection iteration.
52 * @return boolean - indicates whether the requestor is currently interested by problems.
