/** Abstract class for passivation jobs.
Subclasses should implement {@link #execute} synchronizing it in some way because
the execute method is normally called in the passivation thread,
while the cancel method is normally called from another thread.
To avoid that subclasses override methods of this class without
make them synchronized (except execute of course), they're declared final.
