Detailed Description

Envelope is an base class for objects representing real functions of time.

Class Envelope is an abstract base class, specifying interface for prototypable (clonable) objects representing generic, real-valued (double) functions of one real-valued (double) time argument. Derived classes (like BreakpointEnvelope) must implement valueAt() and clone(), the latter to support the Prototype pattern. Clients of Envelope, like Morpher and Distiller, can use prototype Envelopes to make their own private Envelopes.
