36 * This is the main API class, used for both external and internal processing.
37 * When executed, it will create the requested formatter object,
38 * instantiate and execute an object associated with the needed action,
39 * and use formatter to print results.
40 * In case of an exception, an error message will be printed using the same formatter.
42 * To use API from another application, run it using FauxRequest object, in which
43 * case any internal exceptions will not be handled but passed up to the caller.
44 * After successful execution, use getResult() for the resulting data.
