//  This is a concrete class of G4UIsession.

//  This class object is instantiated by G4UImanager at every time 
//  when "/control/execute macro_file" command is executed.
//  Also in the case of pure batch mode with a macro file, 
//  this class can be used as other ordinary G4UIsession 
//  concrete classes, i.e. SessionStart() is invoked in main().

//  G4UIbridge:
//   To be used for MT mode. 
//   Register a particular thread-local G4UImanager with a UI command
//   directory name. When a UI command is issued in the master thread
//   that starts with this redistered directory name, it is immediately
//   forwarded to the registered G4UImanager. Such forwarded command 
//   is not processed in the master thread nor other worker thread.
