// This is the ROOT implementation of the Qt object communication       //
// mechanism (see also http://www.troll.no/qt/metaobjects.html)         //
//                                                                      //
// Signals and slots are used for communication between objects.        //
// When an object has changed in some way that might be interesting     //
// for the outside world, it emits a signal to tell whoever is          //
// listening. All slots that are connected to this signal will be       //
// activated (called).  It is even possible to connect a signal         //
// directly to  another signal (this will emit the second signal        //
// immediately whenever the first is emitted.) There is no limitation   //
// on the number of slots that can be connected to a signal.            //
// The slots will be activated in the order they were connected         //
// to the signal. This mechanism allows objects to be easily reused,    //
// because the object that emits a signal does not need to know         //
// to what the signals are connected to.                                //
// Together, signals and slots make up a powerfull component            //
// programming mechanism.                                               //
//                                                                      //
