/**
 * Abstract implementation of ITmfTrace.
 * <p>
 * Since the concept of 'location' is trace specific, the concrete classes have
 * to provide the related methods, namely:
 * <ul>
 * <li> public ITmfLocation<?> getCurrentLocation()
 * <li> public double getLocationRatio(ITmfLocation<?> location)
 * <li> public ITmfContext seekEvent(ITmfLocation<?> location)
 * <li> public ITmfContext seekEvent(double ratio)
 * <li> public IStatus validate(IProject project, String path)
 * </ul>
 * A concrete trace must provide its corresponding parser. A common way to
 * accomplish this is by making the concrete class extend TmfTrace and
 * implement ITmfEventParser.
 * <p>
 * The concrete class can either specify its own indexer or use the provided
 * TmfCheckpointIndexer (default). In this case, the trace cache size will be
 * used as checkpoint interval.
