-/**
- * A simple interface for measuring time intervals. An instance of this goes
- * through the following lifecycle states:
- * <DL>
- * <DT> <EM>ready</EM>
- * <DD> timer is ready to start a new measurement
- * <DT> <EM>started</EM>
- * <DD> timer has recorded the starting time interval point
- * <DT> <EM>stopped</EM>
- * <DD> timer has recorded the ending time interval point
- * </DL>
- * See individual methods for details.<P>
- *
- * If this library has been compiled with {@link ITimerConstants#DO_STATE_CHECKS}
- * set to 'true' the implementation will enforce this lifecycle model and throw
- * IllegalStateException when it is violated.
