namespace WebCore {

// Class representing a closed interval which can hold an arbitrary
// Plain Old Datatype (POD) as its endpoints and a piece of user
// data. An important characteristic for the algorithms we use is that
// if two intervals have identical endpoints but different user data,
// they are not considered to be equal. This situation can arise when
// representing the vertical extents of bounding boxes of overlapping
// triangles, where the pointer to the triangle is the user data of
// the interval.
//
// *Note* that the destructors of type T and UserData will *not* be
// called by this class. They must not allocate any memory that is
// required to be cleaned up in their destructors.
//
// The following constructors and operators must be implemented on
// type T:
//
//   - Copy constructor (if user data is desired)
//   - operator<
//   - operator==
//   - operator=
//
// If the UserData type is specified, it must support a copy
// constructor and assignment operator.
//
// In debug mode, printing of intervals and the data they contain is
// enabled. This requires the following template specializations to be
// available:
//
//   template<> struct WebCore::ValueToString<T> {
//       static String string(const T& t);
//   };
//   template<> struct WebCore::ValueToString<UserData> {
//       static String string(const UserData& t);
//   };
//
// Note that this class requires a copy constructor and assignment
// operator in order to be stored in the red-black tree.
