[Quantlib-dev] Surface interface

[Joseph W. <jo...@gn...>]

Unless someone objects, I'd like to check in a set of classes that provide a 
standardized interface to surfaces in quantlib.  The basic interface is a 
Surface class that returns a real in return to two real inputs and provides 
information about the domain the Surface is valid.  The idea behind this is 
to provide a standard interface for external plotting packages.  

The goal in three or four months time is to make this work with Python and VTK 
to provide the sort of visualization which is standard in CFD, medical and 
petroleum, but which I haven't seen yet in QF.  

The other thing that we probably should look at before 1.0 is to look at the 
classes and see if there are any that are redundant.
