+## Introduction
+* Run 'mvn clean install' on this project in order to build and compile all artifacts contained in it.
+* The action above will produce a .zip file under the installer directory of each bundle, which can be installed during Docker Instantiation (Please see master README for more information on this).
+
+## Handling YANG Models
+* After running 'mvn clean install', this will generate some code from the yang models.
+* Modify the yang model file under the model project.
+* Follow the comments in the generated provider class to wire your new provider into the generated 
+code.
+* Modify the generated provider model to respond to and handle the yang model. Depending on what
+you added to your model you may need to inherit additional interfaces or make other changes to
+the provider model.
+
+## Structure of a ODL Karaf Feature in APP-C
+* model
+    - Provides the yang model for your application. This is your primary northbound interface.
+* provider
+    - This is where the JAVA code is implemented. This part will define what the Karaf Feature will accomplish and how it will respond to a yang model.
+* features
+    - Defines the contents of a Karaf Feature. If you add dependencies on third-party bundles, then you will need to
+      modify the features.xml to list out the dependencies.
+* installer
+    - Bundles all of the jars and third party dependencies (minus ODL dependencies) into a single
+      .zip file with the necessary configuration files in order to install the Karaf Feature by means of calling the Karaf Client (which will ultimately run "feature:install <FEATURE_NAME>") in order to install the feature.

+/**
+ * This class is used to capture and cache the service catalog for a specific OpenStack provider.
+ * <p>
+ * This is needed because the way the servers are represented in the ECOMP product is as their fully qualified URL's.
+ * This is very problematic, because we cant identify their region from the URL, URL's change, and we cant identify the
+ * versions of the service implementations. In otherwords, the URL does not provide us enough information.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * The zone abstraction layer is designed to detect the versions of the services dynamically, and step up or down to
+ * match those reported versions. In order to do that, we need to know before hand what region we are accessing (since
+ * the supported versions may be different by regions). We will need to authenticate to the identity service in order to
+ * do this, plus we have to duplicate the code supporting proxies and trusted hosts that exists in the abstraction
+ * layer, but that cant be helped.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * What we do to circumvent this is connect to the provider using the lowest supported identity api, and read the entire
+ * service catalog into this object. Then, we parse the vm URL to extract the host and port and match that to the
+ * compute services defined in the catalog. When we find a compute service that has the same host name and port,
+ * whatever region that service is supporting is the region for that server.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * While we really only need to do this for compute nodes, there is no telling what other situations may arise where the
+ * full service catalog may be needed. Also, there is very little additional cost (additional RAM) associated with
+ * caching the full service catalog since there is no way to list only a portion of it.

+/**
+ * This class is used to synchronize signaling of status between threads.
+ * <p>
+ * In complex multi-threaded applications it is often necessary to synchronize operations between threads. This is
+ * especially true in complex algorithms where processing dependencies exist between different threads and the
+ * synchronization of the operations of those threads is required. This class is a framework to enable multi-thread
+ * signaling and wait/post logic that makes the thread synchronization easier.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Basically, in thread synchronization, one thread is the "waiter" and one or more other threads are the "notifiers".
+ * The notifiers send signals to the waiter to inform that thread that certain conditions are true, processing has been
+ * completed, or to inform the waiter of the state of the other thread(s). In the basic java framework, the waiter and
+ * notifier are simply using the wait/notify mechanism provided, which does not allow for different conditions, state,
+ * or "signals" to exist. The wait/notify mechanism, in combination with the object mutex, provides basic blocking and
+ * releasing of a thread's dispatching state.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * This class builds upon the java wait/notify mechanism and allows for "signals" to be defined. These signals are
+ * simply string constants that mean something to the waiter and notifier threads. Any number of signals may be defined,
+ * and it is possible to wait for more than one signal to be received, wait for any one of a set to be received, or to
+ * test if a signal has been received without blocking.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Some operations are blocking operations. These stop the execution of the calling thread until the specified condition
+ * is true. These blocking methods are all named "wait...", such as {@link #waitFor(String...)} and
+ * {@link #waitForAny(String...)}. The thread making the call to these blocking methods MUST be the waiter thread (the
+ * thread registered with the signal object).
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Some operations are non-blocking. These operations allow for the testing or setting of signal conditions and do not
+ * block the caller. When calling these methods ({@link #isSignaled(String)}, {@link #signal(String)}, and
+ * {@link #setTimeout(long)} the waiter thread mutex will be held and may block the waiter thread for the duration of
+ * the method call.
+ * </p>

+/**
+ * The configuration factory is used to obtain access to an already created and initialized singleton configuration
+ * object as well as to create and initialize the singleton if not already set up.
+ * <p>
+ * This class is responsible for the creation of the configuration object used to manage the configuration of the
+ * application. The configuration object implementation must implement the <code>Configuration</code> interface. This
+ * allows for the factory to create different specializations in the future if needed and not break any application
+ * code.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * The configuration object is basically a wrapper around a properties object. The configuration is therefore specified
+ * as a set of properties that are loaded and processed from different sources with different precedences. It is
+ * important that the configuration object always be able to supply default values for any configuration properties that
+ * must be supplied, and not rely on the user always supplying these values. This also relieves the application itself
+ * from having to interpret missing or invalid properties and applying defaults. By having all of the defaults in one
+ * place, the application code can be simpler (not having to worry about defaults or invalid properties), and the
+ * defaults can be changed much easier (they are all in one place and not distributed throughout the codebase).
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Since the configuration is managed as a property object, we can use a characteristic of the <code>Properties</code>
+ * class to our advantage. Namely, if we put a property into a <code>Properties</code> object that already exists, the
+ * <code>Properties</code> object replaces it with the new value. This does not affect any other properties that may
+ * already be defined in the properties object. This gives us the ability to initialize the properties with default
+ * values for all of the application settings, then override just those that we need to override, possibly from multiple
+ * sources and in increasing order of precedence.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * This means that properties are in effect "merged" together from multiple sources in a prescribed precedence order. In
+ * fact, the precedence order that this factory implements is defined as:
+ * </p>
+ * <ol>
+ * <li>Default values from a system resource file.</li>
+ * <li>User-supplied properties file, if any.</li>
+ * <li>Application-supplied properties, if any.</li>
+ * <li>Command-line properties (if any)</li>
+ * </ol>
+ * <p>
+ * The name and location of the properties file that is loaded can also be set, either in the defaults, overridden by
+ * the system command line via -D, or as a system environment variable. There are two properties that can be specified
+ * to define the name and path. These are:
+ * </p>
+ * <dl>
+ * <dt>org.openecomp.appc.bootstrap.file</dt>
+ * <dd>This property defines the name of the file that will be loaded. If not specified, the default value is
+ * "appc.properties". This can be specified in either (or both) the default properties or the command line. The command
+ * line specification will always override.</dd>
+ * <dt>org.openecomp.appc.bootstrap.path</dt>
+ * <dd>This is a comma-delimited (,) path of directories to be searched to locate the specified file. The first
+ * occurrence of the file is the one loaded, and no additional searching is performed. The path can be specified in
+ * either, or both, the default values and the command line specification. If specified on the command line, the value
+ * overrides the default values. If omitted, the default path is <code>$/opt/openecomp/appc/data/properties,${user.home},.</code></dd>
+ * </dl>

+
+<body>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">
+    CDP Configuration support is provided by a common framework to load
+    and manage configuration properties from multiple sources. The basic
+    concept is to load a set of default properties from a known resource
+    file located on the class path, and then override these defaults
+    with optional settings that can be provided by a user through either
+    additional property files or via the command line (as VM arguments).
+    The loading of defaults from a resource property file (named <strong>com/att/cdp/default.properties</strong>)
+    ensures that values are defined for properties the application needs
+    in order to operate.
+  </p>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">
+    One of these default values that can be set is the name of the
+    property file that allows the user to supply settings, as well as
+    the path where the file can be found. In general, the default name
+    of the property file will be &quot;<strong>cdp.properties</strong>&quot;,
+    and the path that will be searched is &quot;<strong>${user.home};etc;../etc</strong>&quot;.
+    However, these values can be changed through the use of the
+    default.properties resource file. The property that specifies the
+    property file name is named <strong>com.att.cdp.bootstrap.file</strong>,
+    while the property named <strong>com.att.cdp.bootstrap.path</strong>
+    specifies the search path.
+  </p>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">
+    After the default.properties are loaded, but prior to searching for
+    the application configuration file, the configuration factory checks
+    for properties <strong>com.att.cdp.bootstrap.path</strong> and <strong>com.att.cdp.bootstrap.file
+    </strong>in the System properties object (meaning they were set by the
+    command line). If these values are defined in the system properties
+    object, they are used. If not, these values are obtained from the
+    default properties just loaded. This allows the specification of
+    either the file name or path, or both, to be overridden during start
+    up by using command-line arguments.
+  </p>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">The search path is scanned for the
+    first occurrence of the specified property file. The first
+    occurrence is loaded and scanning is stopped at that point. The
+    configuration factory does not load all occurrences it finds, only
+    the first occurrence it finds.</p>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">The configuration properties are
+    loaded and processed according to a defined precedence order, such
+    that properties defined with a higher precedence override the same
+    property at a lower precedence. The precedence order is defined as
+    follows:</p>
+  <h2>Precedence Order</h2>
+  <ol>
+    <li>Default properties are initially loaded into the
+      configuration. These default properties are the lowest level
+      precedence, and will be overridden by any properties specified at
+      higher levels. These are loaded from resources that are packaged
+      as part of the various application components. Each component
+      (Server, Coordinator, EPM, or CLI) may have different default
+      properties. The default properties are loaded from a resource
+      named <strong>com/att/cdp/default.properties</strong>. The default
+      properties can specify the name of the application property file
+      to be used to configure the application, as well as the path to
+      search. Additionally, these properties can be supplied via the
+      command line to override the default settings if needed.<br /> <br />
+    </li>
+    <li>The configuration factory allows for the application to
+      supply an initial properties object to initialize the
+      configuration. This properties object could be loaded or created
+      in any way necessary for the application. This is totally up to
+      the application to define, if it is needed. If no
+      application-specific property object is supplied, this step is
+      skipped. If a property object is supplied, it is used to replace
+      or set any properties that may have been defined by the defaults.<br />
+      <br />
+    </li>
+    <li>The configuration factory will then search for a bootstrap
+      file on a bootstrap path. The actual bootstrap file name and path
+      can be specified as properties on the command line, or will
+      default to a file name of <strong>cdp.properties</strong> and a
+      path of <strong>${user.home};etc;../etc</strong>. If desired, the
+      user can specify the exact name of the property file to be loaded
+      as well as the path using <strong>-Dcom.att.cdp.bootstrap.file=&lt;filename&gt;</strong>
+      and <strong>-Dcom.att.cdp.bootstrap.path=&lt;path&gt;</strong>.
+      These properties are set to default values by the default
+      properties loaded in step #1 above. The first occurrence of a
+      property file is the file loaded and used. Any other occurrences
+      are not processed.<br /> <br />
+    </li>
+    <li>The System properties are then merged into the
+      configuration. This allows the highest level of precedence,
+      command-line VM arguments (-D<strong>name=value</strong>) to be
+      merged into the configuration property object. These settings
+      override all lower level settings of the same name, as well as
+      merge all system properties into the configuration object.
+    </li>
+  </ol>
+  <h2>Variables</h2>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">
+    The configuration support allows for variables to be inserted into
+    any property that is defined. Variables are named using the format <strong>${name}</strong>,
+    where the &quot;name&quot; is the name of a property that is defined
+    in the configuration, or a system property (such as <strong>user.home</strong>).
+    Variables can nest, such that a variable can be replaced with
+    another variable, which is then reevaluated to obtain the value.
+    This allows for indirection as well as variable substitution, if
+    needed.
+  </p>
+  <h2>Using the Configuration Support</h2>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">
+    The configuration support was designed to be easy to use. The
+    configuration implementation is abstracted away from the application
+    so that it could be changed easily in the future if needed, or if we
+    needed to load different implementations for different reasons. This
+    means that the application always accesses the configuration through
+    an interface, named <strong>Configuration</strong>. The
+    implementation of that configuration interface is obtained by a
+    static method on the <strong>ConfigurationFactory</strong> class.
+    The configuration factory will both create the configuration if not
+    already created on the first access, as well as return the current
+    configuration if already created. Additionally, the
+    ConfigurationFactory provides mechanisms to recreate the
+    configuration after the application is initialized should the need
+    arise to update its configuration.
+  </p>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">An example of the code needed to
+    obtain access to the configuration is:</p>
+  <pre style="margin-left: 30.0px;">Configuration config = ConfigurationFactory.getConfiguration();</pre>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">Please refer to the javadoc or the
+    source code in cdp-common for other ways that the configuration and
+    configuration factory can be used.</p>
+  <h2>Reloading Properties</h2>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">The configuration support allows
+    for properties to be re-loaded and re-evaluated after the
+    application is running. This is designed to allow a configuration to
+    be refreshed should the need arise. This could allow on-demand
+    refresh (via a command, for example), or automatically based on
+    sensing a change in the configuration file.</p>
+  <p style="margin-left: 30.0px;">
+    When the <strong>ConfigurationFactory</strong> method <strong>getConfiguration(Propert</strong><strong>ies)</strong>
+    is called, the current configuration is cleared and rebuilt using
+    the process defined above. The supplied property object is used in
+    step #2 of the process. While the properties are being re-built, no
+    access to the properties are allowed. Any attempt to access
+    properties while the re-build operation is in effect will block the
+    caller until completed. This is accomplished using read and write
+    shared locks.

+# 1. The message identifier

+#
+CONFIGURATION_STARTED=APPC0001I|\
+  ECOMP Application Controller (APP-C) initialization started at {0}|\
+  No resolution is required, this is an informational message|\
+  The APP-C component configuration has been started because the component is being \
+    initialized or loaded for the first time, or a new instance of the component is \
+    being created.  This message indicates that the component is starting.
+
+CONFIGURATION_CLEARED=APPC0002I|\
+  All prior configuration has been cleared|\
+  No resolution is required, this is an informational message|\
+  The APP-C component is being started or restarted and any prior configuration \
+    (if present), is cleared.  This is normal.
+
+LOADING_CONFIGURATION_OVERRIDES=APPC0003I|\
+  Loading configuration properties from file "{0}"|\
+  No resolution is required, this is an informational message|\
+  This message indicates that the configuration of the APP-C component was located \
+    and is being loaded from the specified file.
+
+LOADING_DEFAULTS=APPC0004I|\
+  Configuration defaults loaded from resource file "{0}"|\
+  No resolution is required, this is an informational message|\
+  This is a normal indication that the default configuration settings were loaded \
+    from the resource file.  The APP-C components load a default configuration first \
+    so that all configuration values have valid default settings.  Any user configuation \
+    that may be specified then overrides these defaults.
+
+NO_DEFAULTS_FOUND=APPC0005E|\
+  No default property resource "{0}" was found!|\
+  This is an internal error.  Contact support.|\
+  This is an internal error that indicates that the default resource property file \
+    could not be located.  This is likely a packaging error and is indicative of \
+    a construction problem.  Refer this to development or level 3 support for assistance.
+
+PROPERTY_VALUE=APPC0006I|\
+  Property "{0}" ="{1}"|\
+  No resolution is required, this is an informational message|\
+  This message is issued to show the value of configuration properties and is used to \
+    debug start up of the component.
+
+NO_OVERRIDE_PROPERTY_FILE_LOADED=APPC0007E|\
+  No configuration file named [{0}] was found on the configuration search path [{1}]. \
+    If a configuration file should have been loaded, check the file name and search \
+    path specified.  APPC will proceed using the default values and command-line \
+    overrides (if any).|\
+  If a configuration file was expected, verify the file name and that it exists on \
+    the search path for the configuration properties.  The search path defaults to \
+    <em>&#36;{user.home},/opt/app/appc/etc,etc,../etc,/etc,.</em> and can be overridden \
+    by specification of the property <em>org.openecomp.appc.bootstrap.path</em>.  The \
+    property file name defaults to <em>appc.properties</em> and can also be \
+    overridden by the <em>org.openecomp.appc.bootstrap.file</em> property.|\
+  This message indicates that the bootstrap path was searched for the bootstrap \
+    property file (a file that can be supplied to configure APPC) and that no file \
+    with the specified name was found on any of the path elements of the path.
+
+SEARCHING_CONFIGURATION_OVERRIDES=APPC0008I|\
+  Searching path "{0}" for configuration settings "{1}"|\
+  No resolution is required|\
+  This message indicates that the specified path is being examined for a configuration \
+    file of the indicated name.  The configuration file defaults to <em>appc.properties</em> \
+    but can be overridden by specification of the <em>org.openecomp.appc.bootstrap.file</em> \
+    property (using a command-line override, for example).  This message is intended to \
+    assist in the debugging and analysis of configuration issues where the indicated \
+    file may not be processed or found.  The path that is searched is a comma-delimited \
+    list of directories and defaults to <em>&#36;{user.home},/opt/app/appc/etc,etc,../etc,/etc,.</em> \
+    but can also be overridden by specification of the <em>org.openecomp.appc.bootstrap.path</em> \
+    property.
+
+LOADING_APPLICATION_OVERRIDES=APPC0009I|\
+  Loading application-specific override properties|\
+  No resolution required|\
+  This message indicates that the APPC component was invoked as an embedded component \
+    and that the caller has supplied an override property object.
+
+NO_APPLICATION_OVERRIDES=APPC0010I|\
+  No application-specific override properties were provided!|\
+  No resolution required|\
+  This message indicates that the APPC component was invoked as an embedded component \
+    and that the caller has supplied an override property object, but that object was \
+    empty.
+
+MERGING_SYSTEM_PROPERTIES=APPC0011I|\
+  Merging system properties into configuration|\

+    to the IAAS adapter must specify the name of the provider that is desired.  This \
+    could be the result of an incorrect call, or the IAAS adapter configuration is \
+    wrong.|\
+  The APP-C IAAS adapter is being called to request a service on a specific provider, but \
+    the name of the provider cannot be found in the list of defined providers.  This may \
+    be an error in the directed graph that contains the call to the IAAS adapter, or it \

+  This is likely a provider issue.  If the provider is OpenStack, check the virtual \
+    machine on the horizon dashboard.  If the machine is in an invalid state, you may \
+    need to contact Openstack support.  The exact mechanisms for recovery of a machine \
+    in an invalid state are varied and will be different from provider to provider.|\
+  This message indicates that the IAAS adapter has performed some requested action \

+    and region.  If the self-link URL is used, make sure that the correct server resource \
+    is specified.  If the machine was correct, recreate or rebuild the machine to make \
+    it usable.  Correct the request.|\
+  This message indicates that the server specified was found to have been deleted in the \
+    target provider and that the requested action cannot be performed.  This may be caused \
+    by several things:\
+    <ol>\
+      <li>The UUID of the server is wrong and specifies a machine that no longer exists</li>\
+      <li>The machine was deleted by a different process or request</li>\

+    Abstraction Layer) used by the IAAS if a new state definition has been added to the \
+    provider (such as a new version or the installation of an unknown or unsupported \
+    extension).  If the machine's state is valid, refer this error to development or \

+ * The DMaaP listener is responsible for listening to a topic on the Universal Event Bus and reading in messages that
+ * conform to the DCAE message format for APPC. These messages will then be parsed and passed along to the APPC Provider
+ * to take action on. The listener will also send messages out on DMaaP during critical phases. The messages sent out will
+ * have a status of:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li><i>PENDING</i> - The listener has read the message off of DMaaP and has put it in the queue to be processed</li>
+ * <li><i>ACTIVE</i> - The listener has begun actually processing the request and is waiting on the appc provider to
+ * complete the request</li>
+ * <li><i>SUCCESS</i> or <i>FAILURE</i> - The listener has gotten a response back from the appc provider. If it is a
+ * FAILURE, a message should also be included</li>
+ * </ul>
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Activation of the bundle will provision 1 controller that in turn will provision 1 (or in the future more) listener
+ * to interact with DMaaP. Each listener will have a queue of messages read off of DMaaP and a thread pool of workers to
+ * process them. This worker is responsible for contacting appc provider to perform the action
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * When the bundle is deactivated, the stopNow() method is called and the thread pool is emptied and all remaining jobs
+ * are orphaned. Alternatively stop() could be called which would allow all remaining jobs in the queue to complete at
