Description David McCann CLA 2010-10-22 15:04:32 EDT 
We need to allow users to provide important application info, such as the application name, for instances where the logic in SDOHelperContext isn't sufficient.

Specific case:

When a thread is non-weblogic-managed thread, SDO code can't find out the
caller's application name. It results in HeperContext loaded by application
will not be used. It forces SDO users to setup the classloader/helpercontext
mapping.  In most of case, SDO users (e.g. ADF service) won't be able to map all
classloaders in a App's classloader hierarchy to the right helper context.

We will add an abstract class as opposed to an interface to allow additional methods to be added w/o breaking implementers.

For now we will have a single abstract method:

public String getApplicationName()
