// <summary>
// Combine multiple LCRegion's into a new dimension.
// </summary>

// <prerequisite>

// </prerequisite>

// <synopsis> 
// The LCConcatenation class is a specialization of class
// <linkto class=LCRegion>LCRegion</linkto>.
// It makes it possible to combine multiple LCRegion's and to add a
// dimension on them. The range (beginning and end) in that new
// dimension have to be specified using an
// <linkto class=LCBox>LCBox</linkto> object.
// When the LCBox is complete, it will be checked if the given number
// of regions matches the length of the given range (so it could only
// be done after the makeComplete call).
// Using a fractional box does not make much sense, because it results
// in a varying length range when used with varying shaped lattices.
// However, one can use it if wanted.
// <br>
// LCConcatenation can be seen as a mixture of the classes
// <linkto class=LCUnion>LCUnion</linkto> and
// <linkto class=LCExtension>LCExtension</linkto>. Like LCUnion it
// combines regions and like LCExtension it increases the dimensionality
// for the new region (be it with only 1).
// <br>
// E.g. One can define a different polygon in the RA-DEC plane of each
// channel. LCConcatenation makes it possible to combine the polygons
// to one 3D region in the RA-DEC-Freq cube.
// </synopsis> 

// <example>
// This example combines <src>n</src> (relative) circles 
// given in the x-z plane along the y-axis.
// In this example the regions used are circles with the same centers,
// but it is also  possible to combine differently shaped regions.
// Note that LCConcatenation takes over the pointers to the individual regions,
// so they do not need to be deleted (the LCConcatenation destructor does it).
// <srcblock>
// IPosition center (2,10,20);
// PtrBlock<LCRegion*> cirPtr(n);
// for (i=0; i<n; i++) {
//   // Each circle has a different radius.
//   cirPtr(i) = new LCEllipsoid cir1 (center, 1 + i%(n/2));
// }
// // Construct the concatenation for a range (given as a relative box).
// // Extend along the y-axis (axis numbers start counting at 0!).
// // Take over the region pointers.
// LCConcatenation region (True, cirPtr, 1, LCBox(n/2-n, n/2-1));
// </srcblock>
// </example>
