/** @name Macros for definition of dynamic arrays and objarrays
These macros are ugly (especially if you look in the sources ;-), but they
allow us to define 'template' classes without actually using templates.

Range checking is performed in debug build for both arrays and lists. Type
checking is done at compile-time. Warning: arrays <I>never</I> shrink, they
only grow, so loading 10 millions in an array only to delete them 2 lines
below is <I>not</I> recommended. However, it does free memory when it's
destroyed, so if you destroy array also, it's ok.

This macro generates a new objarrays class which owns the objects it
contains, i.e. it will delete them when it is destroyed. An element is of
type T*, but arguments of type T& are taken (see below!) and T& is
returned. <BR>
Don't use this for simple types such as "int" or "long"!
You _may_ use it for "double" but it's awfully inefficient.
<BR>
<BR>
Note on Add/Insert functions:
<BR>
1) function(T*) gives the object to the list, i.e. it will delete the
object when it's removed or in the list's dtor
1) function(T*) gives the object to the array, i.e. it will delete the
object when it's removed or in the array's dtor
<BR>
2) function(T&) will create a copy of the object and work with it
<BR>
<BR>
Also:
<BR>
1) Remove() will delete the object after removing it from the list
1) Remove() will delete the object after removing it from the array
<BR>
2) Detach() just removes the object from the list (returning pointer to it)
2) Detach() just removes the object from the array (returning pointer to it)
<BR>
<BR>
NB1: Base type T should have an accessible copy ctor if Add(T&) is used,
<BR>
NB2: Never ever cast a list to it's base type: as dtor is <B>not</B> virtual
NB2: Never ever cast a array to it's base type: as dtor is <B>not</B> virtual
it will provoke memory leaks

some functions of this class are not inline, so it takes some space to
define new class from this template.

This is necessary because at the moment of DEFINE_LIST class element_type
must be fully defined (i.e. forward declaration is not enough), while
DECLARE_LIST may be done anywhere. The separation of two allows to break
cicrcular dependencies with classes which have member variables of list
type.
