-define(AC, ?MODULE). % Name of process

%%%-----------------------------------------------------------------
%%% The application_controller controls local applications only.  A
%%% local application can be loaded/started/stopped/unloaded and
%%% changed.  The control of distributed applications is taken care of
%%% by another process (default is dist_ac).
%%%
%%% When an application has been started (by a call to application:start)
%%% it can be running or not running (on this node).  For example,
%%% a distributed application must be started on all nodes, but
%%% may be running on one node at the time.
%%%
%%% The external API to this module is in the module 'application'.
%%% 
%%% The process that controls distributed applications (called dist
%%% ac).  calls application_controller:control_application(Name) to
%%% take responsibility for an application.  The interface between AC
%%% and the dist_ac process is message-based:
%%%
%%% AC                                        DIST AC
%%% ==                                        =======
%%%     --> {ac_load_application_req, Name}
%%%     <-- {ac_load_application_reply, Name, LoadReply}
%%%     --> {ac_start_application_req, Name}       (*)
%%%     <-- {ac_start_application_reply, Name, StartReply}
%%%     --> {ac_application_run, Name, Res}
%%%     --> {ac_application_not_run, Name, Res}
%%%     --> {ac_application_stopped, Name}
%%%     --> {ac_application_unloaded, Name}
%%%     <-- {ac_change_application_req, Name, Req} (**)
%%%
%%% Where LoadReply =
%%%   ok              - App is loaded
%%%   {error, R}      - An error occurred
%%% And StartReply =
%%%   start_it        - DIST AC decided that AC should start the app
%%%   {started, Node} - The app is started distributed at Node
%%%   not_started     - The app should not be running at this time
%%%   {takeover, Node}- The app should takeover from Node
%%%   {error, R}      - an error occurred
%%% And Req =
%%%   start_it        - DIST AC wants AC to start the app locally
%%%   stop_it         - AC should stop the app.
%%%   {takeover, Node, RestartType}
%%%                   - AC should start the app as a takeover
%%%   {failover, Node, RestartType}
%%%                   - AC should start the app as a failover
%%%   {started, Node} - The app is started at Node
%%%                     NOTE: The app must have been started at this node
%%%                     before this request is sent!
%%% And Res =
%%%   ok              - Application is started locally
%%%   {error, R}      - Start of application failed
%%%
%%% (*)
%%%  The call to application:start() doesn't return until the
%%%  ac_start_application_reply has been received by AC.  AC
%%%  itself is not blocked however.
%%% (**)
%%%  DIST AC gets ACK to its ac_change_application_req, but not as a
%%%  separate messgage.  Instead the normal messages are used as:
%%%   start_it   generates an ac_application_run
%%%   stop_it    generates an ac_application_not_run
%%%   takeover   generates an ac_application_run
%%%   started    doesn't generate anything
%%%
%%% There is a distinction between application:stop and stop_it
%%% from a dist ac process.  The first one stops the application,
%%% and resets the internal structures as they were before start was
%%% called.  stop_it stops the application, but just marks it as
%%% not being running.
%%%
%%% When a dist ac process has taken control of an application, no
%%% other process can take the control.

%%          introduced.  Note that during some time the ACs may have
%%          different view of e.g. the distributed applications.
%%          This is solved by syncing the release installation.
%%          However, strange things may happen if a node crashes
%%          and two other nodes have different opinons about who's
%%          gonna start the applications.  The release handler must
%%          shutdown each involved node in this case.
%%          Note that this function is used to change existing apps,
%%          adding new/deleting old isn't handled by this function.
%%          Changes an application's vsn, descr and env.
%% Returns: ok | {error, Reason}
%%          If an error occurred, the situation may be inconsistent,
%%          so the release handler must restart the node.  E.g. if
%%          some applicatation may have got new config data.
