61 // <synopsis>
62 // The only purpose of LattRegionHolder is to have a single object for
63 // the various kinds of regions. It can hold a
64 // <linkto class=LCRegion>LCRegion</linkto>, and
65 // <linkto class=LCSlicer>LCSlicer</linkto>.

72 
73 // <motivation>
74 // It was felt that making an abstract base class LatticeRegion for
75 // LCRegion and WCRegion would create undesirable dependencies of
76 // module Lattices on module Coordinates. E.g. it would be impossible
77 // to have a function toWCRegion.
78 // Therefore the container class LattRegionHolder is chosen, from which
79 // the container <linkto class=ImageRegion>ImageRegion</linkto> is derived.
80 // </motivation>
