//
// <synopsis> 
// VirtualTaQLColumn is a virtual column engine to define the contents of a
// column as a TaQL CALC expression in which possibly other columns are used.
// It is (of course) only possible to get data from the column; puts cannot
// be done. See note 199 for a description of TaQL.
// The TaQL style can be specified (such as 0- or 1-based indexing).
// <br>
// The expression result can be a scalar or array of the basic TaQL data types.
// The column data type has to be conformant with that TaQL type, thus a
// column of any integer type has to be used for an integer TaQL result.
// <br>
// Constant expressions are precalculated and cached making the retrieval of
// e.g. the full column much faster (factor 4).
// <br>
// A possible use for a virtual TaQL column is a column in a MeasurementSet
// containing a constant value. It could also be used for on-the-fly calculation
// of J2000 UVW-values or HADEC using an expression such as "derivedmscal.newuvw()"
// <note role=caution> One has to be careful with deleting columns. If in an
// existing table a TaQL expression uses a deleted column, the expression
// cannot be parsed anymore and the table cannot be opened anymore.
// In the future the Table System will be made more forgiving.
// </note>
// </synopsis> 
//
// <example>
// The following example creates a table with a few columns.
// One column is virtual and has a random value if Col3 is true.
// Otherwise it has value 0.
// <srcblock>
//    // Create the table description.
//    TableDesc td;
//    td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<DComplex>("Col1"));
//    td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<Int>("Col2"));
//    td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<Bool>("Col3"));
//    td.addColumn (ScalarColumnDesc<Double>("ColVirt"));
//  
//    // Now create a new table from the description.
//    SetupNewTable newTab("tmtest", td, Table::New);
//    // Define the expression of the virtual column and bind the column to it.
//    // The other columns are by default bound to StandardStMan.
//    VirtualTaQLColumn engine("iif(Col3,rand(),0)");
//    newTab.bindColumn("ColVirt", engine);
//    Table tab(newTab);
// </srcblock>
