/**
* This class is used to manage once-only initialization that should occur
* before main() is invoked, such as the creation of static variables. It
* also provides a mechanism for handling dependencies (where one class
* needs to perform its once-only initialization before another).
*
* The simplest way to use an Initialize object is to define a static
* initialization method for a class, say Foo::init(). Then, declare
* a static Initialize object in the class:
* "static Initialize initializer(Foo::init);".
* The result is that Foo::init will be invoked when the object is
* constructed (before main() is invoked). Foo::init can create static
* objects and perform any other once-only initialization needed by the
* class. Furthermore, if some other class needs to ensure that Foo has
* been initialized (e.g. as part of its own initialization) it can invoke
* Foo::init directly (Foo::init should contain an internal guard so that
* it only performs its functions once, even if invoked several times).
*
* There is also a second form of constructor for Initialize that causes a
* new object to be dynamically allocated and assigned to a pointer, instead
* of invoking a function. This form allows for the creation of static objects
* that are never destructed (thereby avoiding issues with the order of
* destruction).

* This form of constructor causes its function argument to be invoked

*
* \param func
* This function is invoked with no arguments when the object is
* constructed. Typically the function will create static
* objects and/or invoke other initialization functions. The
* function should normally contain an internal guard so that it
* only performs its initialization the first time it is invoked.
