/**
 * Provides a dynamic management bean by using reflection on an
 * interface and an implementing class.  By default, a bean instance
 * is paired up with its interface based on specific naming
 * conventions (if the implementation is called X, the interface must
 * be XMBean).  Using this class removes the need to use a specific
 * naming system to match up the two.  Instead, an instance of this
 * bean is created either via explicit construction or subclassing,
 * and this provides access to the attributes, constructors and
 * operations of the implementation via reflection.  Various hooks are
 * provided in order to allow customization of this process.
