-/**
- * An interface that defines an API for opening archives. The {@link CommonArchiveFactory}
- * implementation uses a root level discriminator to open an archive. The main benefit of this api
- * is it allows extended teams or third parties to plug in to the framework to allow specialized
- * kinds of jar files do be discerned at creation/open time without the client having to provide a
- * lot of logic. For example, a client would simply write
- * <code>((CommonArchivePackage)EPackage.Registry.INSTANCE.getEPackage(CommonArchivePackage.eNS_URI)).getCommonArchiveFactory().open(aString)<code>, and get back
- * the correct kind of archive instance. A discriminator contains children, which is an ordered list of discriminators, each of which
- * can have its turn to determine if it can open an archive. The first one to succeed wins. Once a discriminator determines that it
- * can open an archive, it gives each of its children the opportuntity to do something more specific, and so on. In the base
- * implementation, discriminators are defined as single instances of an inner class for each import strategy. The following code shows
- * how to register a discriminator for a specialized EJBJarFile:
- * <code>EjbJar11ImportStrategyImpl.getDiscriminator().addChild(aDiscriminator);</code>
- * This would be done as an initialization at startup time. If the child discriminator is ever invoked, the parent will have already
- * determined that the archive is an EJBJarFile and will have converted it to that type.
