// class G4ElectroMagneticField
//
// Class description:
//
// A full Electromagnetic field, containing both electric and magnetic fields.
// It is an abstract class, and a derived type of this field must be
// created by the user to describe his/her field configuration.

// We have established a convention for the electromagnetic field components:
// In the GetValue method, the return values of Bfield will have 
// the following meaning
//  - Components 0, 1 and 2 are the Magnetic Field (x, y, z respectively);
//  - Components 3, 4 and 5 are the Electric field (x, y, z respectively).
// 
// Note 1: one or the other field could optional, depending on the Equation
// Note 2: such a convention is required between any field and its 
// corresponding equation of motion.
//
// History:
// - Created:  J. Apostolakis, November 12th, 1998
// - Modified: 
//   V. Grichine     8 Nov 2001: Extended "Point" arg to [4] array to add time
//   G. Cosmo        2 Apr 2003: Reorgansised, moved inline methods to .cc
//   J. Apostolakis  5 Nov 2003: Derive directly from G4Field 
//   J. Apostolakis 31 Aug 2004: Information on convention for components
