+/**
+ * @class AlfLayoutManager alflayoutmanager.h "alf/alflayoutmanager.h"
+ * The interface for layout managers
+ *
+ * Layout manager handles the layouting of child widgets in the container widget.
+ * It uses IAlfLayoutPreferences-interface (@see IAlfLayoutPreferences) 
+ * of child widgets as a guide for laying out the widgets. The layoutmanager 
+ * is set to the IAlfHostApi- interface (@see IAlfHostApi::setBaseLayout)
+ * createLayout-method should be the first call after creating the layoutmanager.
+ *
+ * Layout manager may also provide information about the layout preferences of its
+ * children. If this is supported the layout manager will combine the layout preferences
+ * of its children taking into consideration the technique used to lay out the children
+ * using the layout manager. This will provide information about the whole display area
+ * occupied by the layout manager. For instance vertical flow layout manager will provide
+ * preferred size area of its children by summing their heights and providing the maximum
+ * width among the children.
+ *
+ * @code
+ * // Create layout manager interface.
+ * IAlfLayoutManager* layoutManager = IAlfInterfaceBase::makeInterface<IAlfLayoutManager>(control);
+ *
+ * // See if layout preferences is supported in the given layout manager.
+ * IAlfLayoutPreferences* layoutPreferences = IAlfInterfaceBase::makeInterface<IAlfLayoutPreferences>(layoutManager);
+ *
+ * if(layoutPreferences != 0)
+ *     {
+ *     TAlfXYMetric preferredSize;
+ *     // This will report the preferred size of the layout by combining together preferred sizes of its children.
+ *     bool result = layoutPreferences->getPreferredSize(preferredSize);
+ *     }
+ * @endcode
+ *
+ * @lib alfwidgetmodel.lib
+ * @since S60 ?S60_version
+ * @status Draft
