/**
 * @class ACE_Event_Handler_T
 *
 * @brief Enable a class that doesn't inherit from the
 * ACE_Event_Handler to be incorporated into the ACE_Reactor
 * framework.  Thanks to Greg Lavender (g.lavender@isode.com)
 * for sharing this idea.
 *
 * It is sometimes the case that an application has a hierarchy
 * of operation dispatcher classes that have their own
 * inheritance hierarchy but also would like to integrate with
 * the ACE_Reactor.  Rather than adopt a "mixin" approach, it is
 * often cleaner to define a template as a subclass of
 * ACE_Event_Handler and paramterize it with an operation
 * dispatcher type.
 * When constructing an instantiation of the ACE_Event_Handler_T
 * object, a set of pointers to member functions must be
 * provided so that when one of the handle_* methods is called
 * by the ACE_Reactor, the appropriate method is called on the
 * underlying operations object.  This is done since in some
 * cases it is useful to map any event that happens to the same
 * method on an object.
 * The ACE_Event_Handler_T template is instantiated by an
 * operations object and registered with the ACE_Reactor, and it
 * then calls the appropriate op_handler.  So, it's basically
 * just another level of indirection in event dispatching. The
 * coupling betweent the ultimate handler of the event and the
 * ACE_Event_Handler class is relaxed a bit by have this
 * intermediate <op_handler_> object of type <T> around. The
 * client object can then dynamically change the bindings for
 * the various handlers so that during the life of one of the
 * operation objects, it can change how it wants events to be
 * handled. It just instantiates a new instance of the template
 * with different bindings and reregisters this new object with
 * the ACE_Reactor.
