    /**
     * Enumeration describing the major events that the container can invoke 
     * the CometProcessors event() method with
     * BEGIN - will be called at the beginning 
     *  of the processing of the connection. It can be used to initialize any relevant 
     *  fields using the request and response objects. Between the end of the processing 
     *  of this event, and the beginning of the processing of the end or error events,
     *  it is possible to use the response object to write data on the open connection.
     *  Note that the response object and depedent OutputStream and Writer are still 
     *  not synchronized, so when they are accessed by multiple threads, 
     *  synchronization is mandatory. After processing the initial event, the request 
     *  is considered to be committed.
     * READ - This indicates that input data is available, and that one read can be made
     *  without blocking. The available and ready methods of the InputStream or
     *  Reader may be used to determine if there is a risk of blocking: the servlet
     *  should read while data is reported available. When encountering a read error, 
     *  the servlet should report it by propagating the exception properly. Throwing 
     *  an exception will cause the error event to be invoked, and the connection 
     *  will be closed. 
     *  Alternately, it is also possible to catch any exception, perform clean up
     *  on any data structure the servlet may be using, and using the close method
     *  of the event. It is not allowed to attempt reading data from the request 
     *  object outside of the execution of this method.
     * END - End may be called to end the processing of the request. Fields that have
     *  been initialized in the begin method should be reset. After this event has
     *  been processed, the request and response objects, as well as all their dependent
     *  objects will be recycled and used to process other requests. End will also be 
     *  called when data is available and the end of file is reached on the request input
     *  (this usually indicates the client has pipelined a request).
     * ERROR - Error will be called by the container in the case where an IO exception
     *  or a similar unrecoverable error occurs on the connection. Fields that have
     *  been initialized in the begin method should be reset. After this event has
     *  been processed, the request and response objects, as well as all their dependent
     *  objects will be recycled and used to process other requests.
