/// pqObjectBuilder is loosely based on the \c Builder design pattern.
/// It is used to create as well as destroy complex objects such as
/// views, displays, sources etc. Since most of the public API is
/// virtual, it is possible for custom applications to subclass
/// pqObjectBuilder to provide their own implementation for creation/
/// destroying these objects. The application layer accesses the
/// ObjectBuilder through the pqApplicationCore singleton.
/// NOTE: pqObjectBuilder replaces the previously supported
/// pqPipelineBuilder. Unlink, pqPipelineBuilder, this class
/// no longer deals with undo/redo stack. The application layer
/// components that use the ObjectBuilder are supposed to bother
/// about the undo stack i.e. call begin/end on the undo stack
/// before/after calling creation/destruction method on the ObjectBuilder.
