//:A PtProvider represents the software entity that interfaces with an
//:instance of the "Pingtel Server" to monitor and control a group of
//:Pingtel phones.
//
// <H3>Obtaining access to a Provider (Pingtel Server)</H3>
// A PtProvider object is created and returned by the static
// PtProvider::getProvider() method.  This method sets up any needed
// communication paths between the application and the provider.
//
// <H3>Listeners and Events</H3>
// Each time a state change occurs on a provider, the application is notified
// via an event. These events are reported via PtProviderListener objects.
// Applications instantiate objects which are derived from the
// PtProviderListener class and use the PtProvider.addProviderListener()
// method to begin the delivery of events. Nearly all provider
// events reported via a PtProviderListener are instances of either the
// PtProviderEvent class or its descendants.  The only exceptions are the
// PROVIDER_ADDRESS_ADDED and PROVIDER_ADDRESS_REMOVED events (which are
// instances of the PtAddressEvent class) and the PROVIDER_TERMINAL_ADDED
// and PROVIDER_TERMINAL_REMOVED events (which are instances of the
// PtTerminalEvent class).<br>
// <br>
// Applications may query the reported event object for
// the specific state change via the PtEvent.getId() method. When the
// provider changes state, a PtProviderEvent is reported via the
// PtProviderListener with one of the following event IDs:
// PROVIDER_IN_SERVICE, PROVIDER_OUT_OF_SERVICE, or PROVIDER_SHUTDOWN.  A
// PtProviderEvent with an event ID of PROVIDER_EVENT_TRANSMISSION_ENDED is
// delivered to all PtProviderListeners when the provider becomes
// unobservable and is the final event delivered to the listener.
//
// <H3>Call Objects and Providers</H3>
// The PtProvider maintains knowledge of the calls currently associated with
// it. Applications may obtain an array of these calls via the
// PtProvider.getCalls() method. A PtProvider may have calls associated with
// it that were created before it came into existence. The provider maintains
// references to all calls until they move into the PtCall::INVALID state.<br>
// <br>
// Applications may create new calls using the PtProvider.createCall() method.
// A new call is returned in the PtCall::IDLE state. Applications may then
// use this idle call to place new phone calls. Once created, this new
// call object is returned via the PtProvider.getCalls() method.
//
// <H3>The Provider's domain</H3>
// The term "provider's domain" refers to the collection of PtAddress and
// PtTerminal objects which are local to the provider, and typically, can be
// controlled by the provider.
//
// <H3>Address and Terminal Objects</H3>
// A PtAddress object represents what we commonly think of as a "telephone
// number." For calls to IP telephony endpoints, the "telephone number" may
// actually be a URL or IP address identifying the endpoint.  Regardless, it
// represents a logical endpoint of a phone call.  A PtTerminal
// represents a physical endpoint connected to the telephone or IP network.
// An example of a terminal is a telephone that uses the Pingtel Telephony API.
// PtAddresses and PtTerminals are in a many-to-many relationship. A
// PtAddress may be associated with multiple PtTerminals, and PtTerminals
// may be associated with multiple PtAddresses. See the specifications for
// the PtAddress and PtTerminal classes for more information.<br>
// <br>
// Unlike PtCall objects, applications may not create PtTerminal or PtAddress
// objects. The PtProvider begins with knowledge of certain PtTerminal and
// PtAddress objects within its local domain. This list is quasi-static,
// changing only as logical and physical endpoints are added and removed in
// the phone system. The currently known addresses and terminals in the
// provider's domain are reported by the PtProvider.getAddresses() and
// PtProvider.getTerminals() methods, respectively.<br>
// <br>
// PtAddress and PtTerminal objects may also be created sometime during the
// operation of the PtProvider when the PtProvider learns of addresses and
// terminals that are outside of its domain.  For example, if the PtProvider's
// domain is a PBX, the PtProvider will know about all PtAddresses and
// PtTerminals in the PBX.  Any PtAddresses and PtTerminals it subsequently
// learns about that are outside the PBX are referred to as remote. These
// remote address and terminal objects are not reported by the
// PtProvider.getTerminals() and PtProvider.getAddresses() methods.
