00005 // Purpose: Define an interface for getting parameter settings.
00006 // Created: Nov, 2000, sss.
00007 //
00008 // This defines a very simple abstract interface for retrieving settings
00009 // for named parameters.  Using this ensures that the hitfit code doesn't
00010 // have to depend on something like rcp.  There is a lightweight concrete
00011 // implementation of this interface, Defaults_Text, which can be used
00012 // for standalone applications.  If this code gets used with the D0 framework,
00013 // a Defaults_RCP can be provided too.
