// File name:    G4VCrossSectionDataSet
//
// Author  F.W. Jones, TRIUMF, 20-JAN-97
//
// Modifications:
// 23.01.2009 V.Ivanchenko move constructor and destructor to source
// 05.07.2010 V.Ivanchenko added name, min and max energy limit and
//            corresponding access methods
// 12.08.2011 G.Folger, V.Ivanchenko, T.Koi, D.Wright redesign the class
// 
//
// Class Description
// This is a base class for hadronic cross section data sets.  Users may 
// derive specialized cross section classes and register them with the
// appropriate process, or use provided data sets.
//
// Each cross section should have unique name
// Minimal and maximal energy for the cross section will be used in run
// time before IsApplicable method is called
// 
// Both the name and the energy interval will be used for documentation 
//
// Class Description - End
