  // Helper functions to deal with the study in a GUI context.
  //
  // First of all, in a GUI context, there is one of the opened
  // studies that is considered as active. Please note that the active
  // study is a GUI concept and it can be obtained only in the
  // SALOME_SessionServer process, i.e. the process that embeds the
  // SalomeApp_Application. The concept of active study doesn't make
  // sense outside of the GUI context.
  //
  // The active study is associated with an GUI Objects Browser that
  // displays a graphical representation of the study. The items that
  // can be selected in the Objects Browser are name Interactive
  // Objects (instance of class SALOME_InteractiveObject). To work
  // with data, we have to retrieve from this Interactive Object (IO)
  // the underlying Study Object (instance of class SALOMEDS::SObject)
  // and from this last the data object that can be anything (that
  // depends of the SALOME module technical choices). In general, on
  // of the attribute of a SObject is a CORBA servant that handles the
  // data to work with
  SALOMEGUIHELPERS_EXPORT SALOMEDS::Study_ptr getStudyServant();
 
  // Another way to get the active study (to be converted in
  // SALOMEDS::Study):
  SALOMEGUIHELPERS_EXPORT SalomeApp_Study   * getSalomeAppActiveStudy();

    SALOMEDS::SObject_ptr sobject = IObjectToSObject(iobject);

  }
  // _MEM_: note that template functions have to be declared AND
  // implemented in the header because they are not compiled in this
  // library but in every client library that includes this header
  // file. The effective compilation depends on the particular class
  // used for TInterface.
