+/** 
+Specifies the interface for providing the information needed by the text 
+layout engine to lay out a text object. 
+
+Examples of derived classes are CRichText and CGlobalText.
+
+At the heart of the interface are two interrogation functions; one gives the 
+paragraph formatting for a document position, and the other gives a pointer 
+descriptor to a series of contiguous characters with identical character 
+formatting, and their character formatting. This information is sufficient 
+for the layout engine to find the formatting and content of an entire document.
+
+The constructor for the layout engine (CTextLayout) is prototyped as:
+static CTextLayout *NewL(MLayDoc *aDoc,TInt aWrapWidth);
+By viewing the text object purely in terms of the MLayDoc interface, the layout 
+engine is insulated from any editable text implementation issues.
+@see static CTextLayout *NewL(MLayDoc *aDoc,TInt aWrapWidth)
