\class   genie::EventGenerator

\brief   Encapsulates a full ordered list of (is the aggregate of) concrete
         EventGeneratorI implementations that must act on the EventRecord
         to generate an event. Each of these implementations corresponds to
         a single processing step.

         Is a concrete implementation of the EventGeneratorI interface.
