// </reviewed>

// <prerequisite>
//# Classes you should understand before using this one.
//   <li> PlainTable
//   <li> DataManager
// </prerequisite>

// <etymology>
// ColumnSet represent the set of columns in a table.
// </etymology>

// <synopsis> 
// ColumnSet contains all columns in a plain table (thus not in a RefTable).
// Furthermore it contains the set of data managers used by the columns
// in the table.
//
// The main purpose of the class is to deal with constructing, writing
// and reading the column objects. It is used by classes SetupNewTable
// and Table.
// </synopsis> 

// <todo asof="$DATE:$">
//# A List of bugs, limitations, extensions or planned refinements.
