Defines the components of an application and supplies additional
meta-data. An application or implementation supplies a concrete
subclass of this abstract class.
The implementation-created instance of an Application subclass may be injected into resource classes and providers using Context
.
In case any of the Application
subclass methods or it's constructor throws a RuntimeException
, the deployment of the application SHOULD be aborted with a failure.

Get a map of custom application-wide properties.
The returned properties are reflected in the application configuration
passed to the server-side features or injected into server-side components.
The set of returned properties may be further extended or customized at deployment time using container-specific features and deployment descriptors. For example, in a Servlet-based deployment scenario, web application's <context-param>
and Servlet <init-param>
values may be used to extend or override values of the properties programmatically returned by this method.
The default implementation returns an empty set.
Returns: a map of custom application-wide properties. Returning null
is equivalent to returning an empty set. Since: 2.0
