/**
 * A view that arranges its children into a box shape by tiling
 * its children along an axis.  The box is somewhat like that
 * found in TeX where there is alignment of the 
 * children, flexibility of the children is considered, etc. 
 * This is a building block that might be useful to represent
 * things like a collection of lines, paragraphs, 
 * lists, columns, pages, etc.  The axis along which the children are tiled is 
 * considered the major axis.  The orthoginal axis is the minor axis.
 * <p>
 * Layout for each axis is handled separately by the methods
 * <code>layoutMajorAxis</code> and <code>layoutMinorAxis</code>.
 * Subclasses can change the layout algorithm by 
 * reimplementing these methods.    These methods will be called
 * as necessary depending upon whether or not there is cached
 * layout information and the cache is considered 
 * valid.  These methods are typically called if the given size
 * along the axis changes, or if <code>layoutChanged</code> is
 * called to force an updated layout.  The <code>layoutChanged</code>
 * method invalidates cached layout information, if there is any.
 * The requirements published to the parent view are calculated by
 * the methods <code>calculateMajorAxisRequirements</code>
 * and  <code>calculateMinorAxisRequirements</code>.
 * If the layout algorithm is changed, these methods will
 * likely need to be reimplemented.
