// This class is used to store temporary objects created when
// building ParameterSwitch's in a ParameterSetDescription.
// It gets created while evaluating an expression something
// like
//
// parameterSetDescription.ifValue( ParameterDescription<int>("switch", 0),
//                                  0 >> ParameterDescription<int>("label1", 11) or
//                                  1 >> ParameterDescription<float>("label2", 11.0f) or
//                                  2 >> ParameterDescription<std::string>("label3", "aValue");
// It hold the temporary results of the operator>> and operator||
// functions in the expression.  The ONLY way to create one
// is via the operator>> function. The intent is that user
// should not need to save this temporary result nor directly
// reference this class, but ...

// If one decided to save the value then one should be aware
// the class has been optimized to minimize the number of copies made
// while evaluating such an expression.  It contains an auto_ptr and
// the class has copy semantics like an auto_ptr.  If you tried to use
// this class directly you must be aware that if a copy is
// made the original contains a null pointer. Then it would
// be easy to write code that dereferences that null pointer.
