//==============================================================================
//   AliAnalysysDataContainer - Container of data of arbitrary type deriving
//      from TObject used for analysis. A container must be connected to the 
//      output data slot of a single analysis task (producer) , but also as 
//      input slot for possibly several other tasks (consumers). The connected 
//      slots must enforce the same data type as the container (or a derived type).
//      A container becomes the owner of the contained data once this was produced.
