30 * Responsible for storing sufficient information about a component tree so that an identical tree can later be
31 * recreated.
32 * <p>
33 * It is up to the concrete implementation to decide whether to use information from the "view template" that was used
34 * to first create the view, or whether to store sufficient information to enable the view to be restored without any
35 * reference to the original template. However as JSF components have mutable fields that can be set by code, and
36 * affected by user input, at least some state does need to be kept in order to recreate a previously-existing component
37 * tree.
38 * <p>
39 * There are two different options defined by the specification: "client" and "server" state.
40 * <p>
41 * When "client" state is configured, all state information required to create the tree is embedded within the data
42 * rendered to the client. Note that because data received from a remote client must always be treated as "tainted",
43 * care must be taken when using such data. Some StateManager implementations may use encryption to ensure that clients
44 * cannot modify the data, and that the data received on postback is therefore trustworthy.
45 * <p>
46 * When "server" state is configured, the data is saved somewhere "on the back end", and (at most) a token is embedded
47 * in the data rendered to the user.
48 * <p>
49 * This class is usually invoked by a concrete implementation of ViewHandler.
50 * <p>
51 * Note that class ViewHandler isolates JSF components from the details of the request format. This class isolates JSF
52 * components from the details of the response format. Because request and response are usually tightly coupled, the
53 * StateManager and ViewHandler implementations are also usually fairly tightly coupled (ie the ViewHandler/StateManager
54 * implementations come as pairs).
