/**
 * Associates a given {@link SecurityContext} with the current execution thread.<p>This class provides a series of
 * static methods that delegate to an instance of {@link org.acegisecurity.context.SecurityContextHolderStrategy}. The
 * purpose of the class is to provide a convenient way to specify the strategy that should be used for a given JVM.
 * This is a JVM-wide setting, since everything in this class is <code>static</code> to facilitate ease of use in
 * calling code.</p>
 *  <p>To specify which strategy should be used, you must provide a mode setting. A mode setting is one of the
 * three valid <code>MODE_</code> settings defined as <code>static final</code> fields, or a fully qualified classname
 * to a concrete implementation of {@link org.acegisecurity.context.SecurityContextHolderStrategy} that provides a
 * public no-argument constructor.</p>
 *  <p>There are two ways to specify the desired strategy mode <code>String</code>. The first is to specify it via
 * the system property keyed on {@link #SYSTEM_PROPERTY}. The second is to call {@link #setStrategyName(String)}
 * before using the class. If neither approach is used, the class will default to using {@link #MODE_THREADLOCAL},
 * which is backwards compatible, has fewer JVM incompatibilities and is appropriate on servers (whereas {@link
 * #MODE_GLOBAL} is definitely inappropriate for server use).</p>
