  // = TITLE
  //    Implement the Web_Server::Callback interface.
  //
  // = DESCRIPTION
  //    A <Callback> object implements the Observer pattern.  It
  //    simply "watches" while the Content Server pushes chunks of
  //    data to itself.  Once the Content Server pushes the last chunk
  //    of data, the <Callback> object spawns an external viewer to
  //    display the pushed data based on the data content type
  //    returned by the Iterator_Factory::register_callback() method.
  //
  //    Since the server pushes data to the <Callback> object
  //    asynchronously, and since instances of this <Callback> class
  //    are registered with the Content Server asynchronously, there
  //    is no guarantee that the metadata containing the content type
  //    will arrive before the content of the file.  As such, this
  //    class atomically sets and checks the flags that provide the
  //    current condition of the metadata and content, in case two
  //    concurrently running threads attempt to update the state
  //    contained within a given <Callback> object.
