/**
 * Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services
 * useful to application services, application environments, and to applications
 * themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types.
 * <p>
 * Core Foundation functions have names that indicate when you own a returned
 * object: Object-creation functions have “Create” embedded in the name, and
 * Object-duplication functions that have “Copy” embedded in the name. If you
 * own an object, it is your responsibility to relinquish ownership (using
 * {@link #CFRelease}) when you have finished with it.
 * <p>
 * If you receive an object from any Core Foundation function other than a
 * creation or copy function—such as a Get function—you do not own it and cannot
 * be certain of the object’s life span. If you want to ensure that such an
 * object is not disposed of while you are using it, you must claim ownership
 * (with the {@link #CFRetain} function).
