//
// Class description:
//
// Represents a leaf node or unpositioned subtree in the geometry hierarchy.
// Logical volumes are named, and may have daughters ascribed to them.
// They are responsible for retrieval of the physical and tracking attributes
// of the physical volume that it represents: solid, material, magnetic field,
// and optionally, user limits, sensitive detectors, regions, biasing weights.
//
// Get and Set functionality is provided for all attributes, but note that
// most set functions should not be used  when the geometry is `closed'.
// As a  further development, `Guard' checks can be added to ensure
// only legal operations at tracking time.
//
// On construction, solid, material and name must be specified.
//
// Daughters are ascribed and managed by means of a simple
// GetNoDaughters,Get/SetDaughter(n),AddDaughter interface.
//
// Smart voxels as used for tracking optimisation. They're also an attribute.
//
// Logical volumes self register to the logical volume Store on construction,
// and deregister on destruction.
//
// NOTE: This class is currently *NOT* subclassed, since not meant to
//       act as a base class. Therefore, the destructor is NOT virtual.
//

//

//    - Vector of daughters. Given initial size of 0.

// The type G4LVManager is introduced to encapsulate the methods used by
// both the master thread and worker threads to allocate memory space for
// the fields encapsulated by the class G4LVData. When each thread
// initializes the value for these fields, it refers to them using a macro
// definition defined below. For every G4LogicalVolume instance, there is
// a corresponding G4LVData instance. All G4LVData instances are organized
// by the class G4LVManager as an array.
// The field "int instanceID" is added to the class G4LogicalVolume.
// The value of this field in each G4LogicalVolume instance is the subscript
// of the corresponding G4LVData instance.
// In order to use the class G4LVManager, we add a static member in the class
// G4LogicalVolume as follows: "static G4LVManager subInstanceManager".
// For the master thread, the array for G4LVData instances grows dynamically
// along with G4LogicalVolume instances are created. For each worker thread,
// it copies the array of G4LVData instances from the master thread.
// In addition, it invokes a method similiar to the constructor explicitly
// to achieve the partial effect for each instance in the array.
