/**
 * <p>
 * <b>Purpose</b>: Define an interface to control sequencing functionality.
 * <p>
 * <b>Description</b>:  This interface is accessed through DatabaseSession.getSequencingControl().
 * It allows to create, re-create, customize Sequencing object
 * which is available through DatabaseSession.getSequencing()
 * and provides sequencing values for all descriptors that use sequencing.
 *
 * Here's the lifecycle of Sequencing object used by DatabaseSession:
 * 1. DatabaseSession created - sequencing object doesn't yet exist;
 * 2. DatabaseSession.login() causes creation of Sequencing object;
 * 3. DatabaseSession.logout() causes destruction of Sequencing object.
 *
 * In case sequencing object doesn't yet exist all the set parameters' values will be used
 * during its creation.
 *
 * In case sequencing object already exists:
 * 1. The following methods don't alter sequencing object - the corresponding parameters will only
 *    be used in case a new sequencing object is created:
 *      setShouldUseSeparateConnection;
 *      setLogin;
 *      setMinPoolSize;
 *      setMaxPoolSize.
 * 2. The following methods cause immediate destruction of the sequencing object and creation of a new one:
 *      setValueGenerationPolicy;
 *      setShouldUseNativeSequencing;
 *      setShouldUseTableSequencing;
 *      resetSequencing;
 * 3. The following methods cause change immediately:
 *      setPreallocationSize (next sequencing preallocation will use the set parameter's value).
 * <p>
 * <b>Responsibilities</b>:
 * <ul>
 * <li> Define the APIs for controlling sequencing.
 * </ul>
 * @see Sequence
 * @see org.eclipse.persistence.sessions.DatabaseSession
