//       Class : ConfigVariableEnum
// Description : This class specializes ConfigVariable as an
//               enumerated type.  It is a template class, so it
//               cannot be easily published; it's not really necessary
//               outside of C++ anyway.
//
//               This variable assumes that the enumerated type in
//               question has input and output stream operators
//               defined that do the right thing (outputting a
//               sensible string for the type, and converting a string
//               to the correct value).
