// <etymology>
// The PagedImage name comes from its role as the Image class with paging 
// from persistent memory.  Users are thus invited to treat the 
// PagedImage instances like Casacore Lattices  
// </etymology>

// <synopsis> 
// All Casacore Images are Lattices.  They may be treated like any other Lattice;
// getSlice(...), putSlice(...), LatticeIterator for iterating, etc.
// ArrayImages contain a map, a mask for that map, and coordinate 
// information.  This provides a Lattice interface for images and their 
// respective coordinates.  Additional functionality is defined by the 
// ImageInterface class. 
//
// You can use the global function <src>imagePixelType</src> to determine
// what the pixel type of an image is before you open the image if your
// code can work with Images of many possible types, or for error checking.
//
// </synopsis> 

// <example>
// This example shows how to create a mask for an image, fill it, and
// make it known to the image.
// <srcblock>
//   // Open the image (as readonly for the moment).
//   PagedImage<Float> myimage ("image.name");
//   // Create a mask for the image.
//   // The mask will be stored in a subtable of the image.
//   LCPagedMask mask (RegionHandler::makeMask (myimage, "mask.name"));
//   // Fill the mask with whatever values (e.g. all True).
//   mask.set (True);
//   // Make the mask known to the image (with name mask1).
//   myimage.defineRegion ("mask1", mask, RegionHandler::Masks);
//   // Make the mask the default mask for this image.
//   myimage.setDefaultMask ("mask1");
// </srcblock>
// It is possible to create as many masks as one likes. They can all
// be defined as masks for the image (with different names, of course).
// However, only one of them can be the default mask (the mask used
// by default when the image is opened). When another mask has to be
// used, one can do two things:
// <ul>
//  <li> Use setDefaultMask to make the other mask the default mask.
//   This is advisable when the change should be more or less permanent.
//  <li> Open the PagedImage without using a default mask. Thereafter
//   a <linkto class=SubImage>SubImage</linkto> object can be created
//   from the PagedImage and the mask. This is advisable when it the
//   mask has to be used only one time.
// </ul>
// </example>

// <motivation>
// The size of astronomical data can be very large.  The ability to fit an 
// entire image into random access memory cannot be guaranteed.  Paging from 
// disk pieces of the image appeared to be the way to deal with this problem.
// </motivation>

//
// <note>
//  When you make a new PagedImage, and you are transferring
//  information from some other PagedImage, be aware that you
//  must copy, manually, things like miscInfo, imageInfo, units,
//  logSink (history) to the new file.
// </note>
// <todo asof="1996/09/04">
//   <li> The CoordinateSystem::store() function returns a TableRecord.  That
// TableRecord should be stored in the same row as our image.  This will 
// allow ImageStack members to have their own coordinate frames.
// </todo>
