A platform-independent way to alert a program that it should shut down immediately.
This can provide a service management feature for graceful shutdown of an application, allowing it a chance to close its objects cleanly, rather than just being whacked in the middle of whatever it's doing. Only one of these objects should be instantiated per program, but the static methods can be used from anywhere in the program.

attempts to close the application named "app_name".
this can only be done if this program possesses sufficient rights to zap that program.

causes this particular application to begin shutting down.
this is a static method available for programs that support the hoople_service's graceful shutdown process. it causes the application to begin the shutdown.

called during the program's shutdown process.
this is invoked just prior to the destruction of this class which is also just before the shutdown of the program overall. in this method, the derived object must ensure that any threads the program started get stopped, that any opened files get closed, and that any other resources are released. this is the application's last chance to clean up.

this means that it is either shutting down or soon will be.

this is used to begin execution of a console mode application.
this method does not do anything except sit while the extant threads are in play. it will not return until the program must exit, as caused by close_this_program() or close_application().

constructs a hoople_service for the "app_name" specified.
this can be any string, although it might be processed for certain operating systems. also, for close_this_program() to work properly, it must be the application's basename. the "timer_period" specifies how frequently to invoke the handle_timer() method during runtime. if it's zero, then no timer will be used.
