/**
 * TRpcApiProvider class
 *
 * TRpcApiProvider is an abstract class the can be subclasses in order to implement an
 * api for a {@link TRpcService}. A subclass of TRpcApiProvider must implement the
 * {@link registerMethods} method in order to declare the available methods, their
 * names and the associated callback.
 *
 * <code>
 * public function registerMethods()
 * {
 *   return array(
 *     'apiMethodName1' => array('method' => array($this, 'objectMethodName1')),
 *     'apiMethodName2' => array('method' => array('ClassName', 'staticMethodName')),
 *   );
 * }
 * </code>
 *
 * In this example, two api method have been defined. The first refers to an object
 * method that must be implemented in the same class, the second to a static method
 * implemented in a 'ClassName' class.
 * In both cases, the method implementation will receive the request parameters as its
 * method parameters. Since the number of received parameters depends on
 * external-supplied data, it's adviced to use php's func_get_args() funtion to
 * validate them.
 *
 * Providers must be registered in the service configuration in order to be available,
 * as explained in {@link TRpcService}'s documentation.
