    Since many ST-80 classes are subclasses of ApplicationModel, this class

    is provided here to allow easier porting of ST-80 code.

    It does not (currently) provide all functionality and is NOT

    compatible to the corresponding ST80 class; therefore, manual

    changes have to be made to get those applications to run under ST/X.

    (but at least, this enables you to fileIn that code and have a superclass

     for them)

    As time goes by, ST/X applications are going to be converted to

    become subclasses of this abstract class - see Launcher for a

    first concrete example.

    ApplicationModel is prepared to build a view from a windowSpec, as

    created by the windowBuilder. If your subclass does not provide such

    a spec, you should at least redefine:

	#openInterface   - to create a topview and open it

    you may want to redefine:

	#closeRequest    - to catch window closing

	#focusSequence   - to define a sequence for focus-stepping

    Once the interfaceBuilder is finished & released, subclasses can

    alternatively provide the spec via a #windowSpec method.

    The classResources have been put into this class to allow ST/X

    applications (which used to be subclasses of StandardSystemView)

    to migrate smoothly into ApplicationModels (which is better design ...).

    [Instance variables:]

	resources    ResourcePack       language string translation

	builder      WindowBuilder      a builder who knows how to create

					a window hierarchy from a specification

    Notice: this class was implemented using protocol information

    from alpha testers and PD code - it may not be complete or compatible to

    the corresponding ST-80 class. If you encounter any incompatibilities,

    please forward a note to the ST/X team.

howToDealWithMultipleApplicationInstances

"

    The following relates to StandAlone applications (i.e. compiled exe's) only.

    If the user attempts to open another of the applications documents (after the first instance

    of the application has already been opened), it is sometimes required to notify the first

    application about this and to ask it to open an extra window on the second-clicked document.

    In other words: to get another of the first instances' windows instead of opening a window

    by the second application.

    This is implemented via the following mechanism (see StandaloneStartup):

        the first application instance leaves the information about its existence somewhere

            (under win32: in the registry, the window-ID of its main window is remembered;

             under unix, its stored into a locked file).

        a mutex is created to prevent a race on this informationduring startup

            (under win32: a mutex proper; under unix, the above locked file will do)

    when the app is started the second time, it will not be able to acquire the mutex (and therefore

    knows, that its the second instance). It will then send an event-message (win32: via copyData;

    unix. via sendClientEvent), to the first instance and pass the fileName of the document which

    is to be opened. The first instance receives this event and opens another window for it.

    The second instance simply exits and stops execution.

    This guarantees that only one instance of an application is executing (if desired).

    The implementation is found in:

        StandaloneStartup:

            checkForAndExitIfAnotherApplicationInstanceIsRunning

        here:

            processOpenPathCommand:aFilename

    By default, the event is ignored - subclasses which want to support that behavior MUST

    redefine processOpenPathCommand: in ApplicationModel and also make sure that

    checkForAndExitIfAnotherApplicationInstanceIsRunning is called for in StandaloneStartup.
