// class G4PathFinder 
//
// Class description:
// 
// This class directs the lock-stepped propagation of a track in the 
// 'mass' and other parallel geometries.  It ensures that tracking 
// in a magnetic field sees these parallel geometries at each trial step, 
// and that the earliest boundary limits the step.
// 
// For the movement in field, it relies on the class G4PropagatorInField
//
// History:
// -------
//  7.10.05 John Apostolakis,  Draft design 
// 26.04.06 John Apostolakis,  Revised design and first implementation
