/** Provides read access to a ContentResultSet.

    <p>
    You can either get a simple static ContentResultSet or you can
    listen to change-notifications and then swap from the old to a new
    ContentResultSet.
    </p>

    <p>The following describes the dynamic use:</p>

    <p>
    XDynamicResultSet provides the possibility to get notifications
    about changes on a ContentResultSet and have an
    listener-controlled update from one version to the next version. Two
    ContentResultSet implementations were given to the listener in
    the first notification as interface
    com::sun::star::sdbc::XResultSet.
    </p>

    <p>
    To get notifications the listener has to be of type
    XDynamicResultSetListener.
    </p>

    <p>
    After registration you will get notifications for events of type
    ListEvent.
    </p>

    <p>
    The calling of XDynamicResultSetListener::notify() has
    to happen in an own thread, because it could take a longer time and any
    actions ??? until the listener returns the call. So don't block the notify-causing
    action.
    </p>

    <p>
    While one notify-call is going on:
    </p>

    <ol>
      <li> The listener is allowed to access both ContentResultSets,
         they must be both valid.</li>
      <li> It is not allowed to start a second notify-call.</li>
      <li> All additional things we want to send as notification are to be
         queued.</li>
      <li> Any other calls are to be accepted and treated.</li>
    </ol>

    <p>
    After the listener has returned the notify-call:
    </p>

    <ol>
    <li> The listener is allowed to access the new
         ContentResultSet. The new one is first assigned in the
         WELCOME-event and then the ResultSets are always swapped.</li>
    <li> The listener is not allowed to access the old
         ContentResultSet.</li>
    </ol>
