  /**
   * This interface defines methods that will be called at different times during
   * the code generation process. These methods can be used to extend or modify
   * the generated code. Clients may implement this interface in its entirety, or
   * extend the PluginAdapter (highly recommended).
   *
   * <p>Plugins have a lifecycle. In general, the lifecycle is this:
   *
   * <ol>
   * <li>The setXXX methods are called one time</li>
   * <li>The validate method is called one time</li>
   * <li>The initialized method is called for each introspected table</li>
   * <li>The clientXXX methods are called for each introspected table</li>
   * <li>The providerXXX methods are called for each introspected table</li>
   * <li>The modelXXX methods are called for each introspected table</li>
   * <li>The sqlMapXXX methods are called for each introspected table</li>
   * <li>The contextGenerateAdditionalJavaFiles(IntrospectedTable) method is
   * called for each introspected table</li>
   * <li>The contextGenerateAdditionalXmlFiles(IntrospectedTable) method is called
   * for each introspected table</li>
   * <li>The contextGenerateAdditionalJavaFiles() method is called one time</li>
   * <li>The contextGenerateAdditionalXmlFiles() method is called one time</li>
   * </ol>
   *
   * <p>Plugins are related to contexts - so each context will have its own set of
   * plugins. If the same plugin is specified in multiple contexts, then each
   * context will hold a unique instance of the plugin.
   *
   * <p>Plugins are called, and initialized, in the same order they are specified in
   * the configuration.
   *
   * <p>The clientXXX, modelXXX, and sqlMapXXX methods are called by the code
   * generators. If you replace the default code generators with other
   * implementations, these methods may not be called.
