56 // <synopsis>
57 // Persistent regions are stored as subrecords of the table keywords
58 // "regions" and "masks". The user can choose one of both keywords.
59 // Keyword "masks" is meant for true image masks, i.e. telling for
60 // each pixel if it is good or bad. Keyword "regions" is meant for
61 // true regions in an image.
62 // <p>
63 // This class handles defining, getting and removing such regions.
64 // It is used by class <linkto class=PagedImage</linkto>, but it can also
65 // be used by other code to handle regions in other tables.
66 // <p>
67 // Another function performed by this class for PagedImage is the
68 // definition of the default region to be used with an image.

75 // This class has 2 purposes:
76 // <ol>
77 // <li> This untemplated code can be factored out from the templated
78 // Image classes.
79 // <li> The functions can easily be used by other code.
