//      GEANT 4 class header file 
//
//
// ------------------------------------------------------------
//   Implemented for the new scheme                23 Mar. 1998  H.Kurahige
//
// Class Description 
//  This class is the abstract class for ParticleChange.
//-
//  The ParticleChange class ontains the results after invocation 
//  of a physics process. This includes final states of parent
//  particle (momentum, energy, etc) and secondary particles generated 
//  by the interaction.
//  The tracking assumes that all the values of energy and
//  momentum are in global reference system, therefore all the
//  needed Lorentz transformations must have been already Done
//  when filling the data-members of this class.
//-
//-
//   This abstract class has following four virtual methods
//     virtual G4Step* UpdateStepForAtRest(G4Step* Step);
//     virtual G4Step* UpdateStepForAlongStep(G4Step* Step);
//     virtual G4Step* UpdateStepForPostStep(G4Step* Step);
//     virtual void Initialize(const G4Track&);
//   The UpdateStep methods return the pointer to the G4Step 
//   after updating the given Step information by using final state 
//   information of the track given by a physics process.    
//   User must add methods to keep the final state information 
//   in his derived class as well as implement UpdateStep methods 
//   which he want to use.
//-
//   The Initialize methods is provided to refresh the final 
//   state information and should be called by each process 
//   at the beginning of DoIt.
//   
// ------------------------------------------------------------
//   Implement Event Biasing Scheme   9 Nov.,98 H.Kurashige
//   add CheckIt                    13  Apr.,99 H.Kurashige
//   add accuracy leveles            5  May, 99 H.Kurashige
//   add check secondaries          11  June, 03 H.Kurashige
//   add new methods of ProposeXXX  08  May, 04 H.Kurashige  
//   remove obsolete methods of SetXXX  19  Sep, 04 H.Kurashige  
//   add flag for first/last step in volume 30 Oct. 2006 H.Kurashige
//   add nonIonizingEnergyLoss          26 Mar 2007 H.Kurashige
