00028 * Helper for defining an abstract managed class.
00029 *
00030 * Managed classes are implementations of coherence::lang::Object, and include
00031 * a set of well known features, which are auto-generated by this helper class:
00032 *
00033 * - Handle/View/Holder definitions
00034 * - super class definition
00035 * - virtual interface inheritance of up to 16 interfaces
00036 *
00037 * The template takes three parameters:
00038 *
00039 * - The name of the class being defined
00040 * - The defined classes parent class, indicated as extends<parent>
00041 * - An optional list of interfaces to implement, indicated as
00042 *   implements<i1, i2, ...>
00043 *
00044 * A normal class definition would be:
00045 * @code
00046 * class Bar
00047 *   : public abstract_spec<Bar,
00048 *       extends<Object>,
00049 *       implements<SomeInterface, SomeOtherInterface> >
00050 *   {
00051 *   public:
00052 *       // normal abstract class definition....
00053 *   };
00054 * @endcode

00057 * @see implements
