// .NAME vtkCallbackCommand - supports function callbacks
// .SECTION Description
// Use vtkCallbackCommand for generic function callbacks. That is, this class
// can be used when you wish to execute a function (of the signature
// described below) using the Command/Observer design pattern in VTK. 
// The callback function should have the form
// <pre>
// void func(vtkObject*, unsigned long eid, void* clientdata, void *calldata)
// </pre>
// where the parameter vtkObject* is the object invoking the event; eid is
// the event id (see vtkCommand.h); clientdata is special data that should
// is associated with this instance of vtkCallbackCommand; and calldata is
// data that the vtkObject::InvokeEvent() may send with the callback. For
// example, the invocation of the ProgressEvent sends along the progress
// value as calldata.
//

  // Satisfy the superclass API for callbacks. Recall that the caller is
