 |   Description:
 |      This file defines the "concatenation" engine that joins
 |      together several (up to 10) fields.  Its inputs are several
 |      multi-valued fields (automatic field conversion will do the
 |      right thing, so you can attach single-valued fields) of the
 |      same type, output is a multi-value field of the same type.
 |
 |      If you need to concatenate more than 10 fields together,
 |      concatenate the outputs of several of these into yet another
 |      concatenate engine.
 |
 |   Classes:
 |      SoConcatenate
 |
 |   Author(s)          : Ronen Barzel, Gavin Bell
