Static Public Member Functions
static Type *	factory (const std::string &name)

Detailed Description

Children of this abstract base class store the minimal amount of calibrator information required for file I/O. They also express the relationships between different calibrators and obviate the need to recompile all Calibrator-derived code whenever a new type is added.
