/**
 * Provides an implementation of the {@link javax.management.NotificationFilter} interface.
 * The filtering is performed on the notification type attribute.
 * <P>
 * Manages a list of enabled notification types.
 * A method allows users to enable/disable as many notification types as required.
 * <P>
 * Then, before sending a notification to a listener registered with a filter,
 * the notification broadcaster compares this notification type with all notification types
 * enabled by the filter. The notification will be sent to the listener
 * only if its filter enables this notification type.
 * <P>
 * Example:
 * <BLOCKQUOTE>
 * <PRE>
 * NotificationFilterSupport myFilter = new NotificationFilterSupport();
 * myFilter.enableType("my_example.my_type");
 * myBroadcaster.addListener(myListener, myFilter, null);
 * </PRE>
 * </BLOCKQUOTE>
 * The listener <CODE>myListener</CODE> will only receive notifications the type of which equals/starts with "my_example.my_type".
 *
 * @see javax.management.NotificationBroadcaster#addNotificationListener

 * @since 1.5
