// The first event that a Starboard application receives is either |Start|
// (kSbEventTypeStart) or |Preload| (kSbEventTypePreload). |Start| puts the
// application in the |STARTED| state, whereas |Preload| puts the application in
// the |PRELOADING| state.
//
// |PRELOADING| can only happen as the first application state. In this state,
// the application should start and run as normal, but will not receive any
// input, and should not try to initialize graphics resources (via GL or
// SbBlitter). In |PRELOADING|, the application can receive |Start| or |Suspend|
// events. |Start| will receive the same data that was passed into |Preload|.
//
// In the |STARTED| state, the application is in the foreground and can expect
// to do all of the normal things it might want to do. Once in the |STARTED|
// state, it may receive a |Pause| event, putting the application into the
// |PAUSED| state.
//
// In the |PAUSED| state, the application is still visible, but has lost
// focus, or it is partially obscured by a modal dialog, or it is on its way
// to being shut down. The application should pause activity in this state.
// In this state, it can receive |Unpause| to be brought back to the foreground
// state (|STARTED|), or |Suspend| to be pushed further in the background
// to the |SUSPENDED| state.
//
// In the |SUSPENDED| state, the application is generally not visible. It
// should immediately release all graphics and video resources, and shut down
// all background activity (timers, rendering, etc). Additionally, the
// application should flush storage to ensure that if the application is
// killed, the storage will be up-to-date. The application may be killed at
// this point, but will ideally receive a |Stop| event for a more graceful
// shutdown.
//
// Note that the application is always expected to transition through |PAUSED|
// to |SUSPENDED| before receiving |Stop| or being killed.

  // work is done or resources are retained after suspension. Can only be

  // a best effort to send an event of this type when the network disconnects,
  // but there are likely to be cases where the platform cannot detect the
  // disconnection (e.g. if the connection is via a powered hub which becomes
  // disconnected), so the current network state cannot always be inferred from
  // the sequence of Connect/Disconnect events.

  // since a disconnection event was sent.
