/**
 * @defgroup axis2_handler handler
 * @ingroup axis2_handler
 * handler is the smallest unit of execution in the Axis2 engine's execution flow.
 * The engine could have two flows, the in-flow and out-flow. A flow is a
 * collection of phases and a phase in turn is a collection of handlers.
 * handlers are configured in relation to modules. A module is a point of
 * extension in the Axis2 engine and a module would have one or more handlers
 * defined in its configuration. The module configuration defines the phases
 * each handler is attached to. A handler is invoked when the phase within which
 * it lives is invoked. handler is stateless and it is using the message context
 * that the state information is captures across invocations.
