// <summary>
// A templated function which sets a variable to a default value.
// </summary>

// </reviewed>
// <prerequisite>
// </prerequisite>
//
// <etymology>
// The DefaultValue function name is derived from its use to fill a data type
// with a default value, usually zero.
// </etymology>
//
// <synopsis>
// The DefaultValue function is passed an instance of a data type and the
// variable is filled with a default value. The majority of classes may
// use the templated version here. Special classes may use their own
// non-templated specializations as demonstrated in
// ../Utilities/test/tDefaultValue.cc.
// </synopsis>
//
// <example>
// <srcblock>
// Int foo = 35;
// defaultValue(foo);
// AlwaysAssert(foo == 0, AipsError);
// Array<Float> bar;
// defaultValue(bar);
// AlwaysAssert(allEQ(bar, 0.0f), AipsError);
// </srcblock>
// A special class may need its own implementation:
// <srcblock>
// void defaultValue(MySpecialClass &val){
// // make a default value be all zeros
// val.operator()(IPosition(2,3,4)) = Table.keywords().defaultval();
// };
// </srcblock>
// </example>
//
// <motivation>
// We needed a common way of setting all objects to zero or some
// null/default value. Specializing a templated function seemed the only way
// to reach everyone.
// </motivation>
//
// <templating arg=T>
// <li> constructor T(Int)
// <li> assignment operator (copy semantics)
// </templating>
//
// <thrown>
// <li> none
// </thrown>
//
// <todo asof="1996/02/22">
// <li> none
// </todo>
// <group name=defval>
template <class T> inline void defaultValue(T &theValue)
{
theValue = T(0);
}
// </group>
