ProxyCurve Class
A ProxyCurve is expected to be used as a base class for curve types that use some existing curve (the proxy) for evaluation and display but carry other defining data.
- The ProxyCurve implements all required CurvePrimitive methods by dispatching to the proxy.
- These methods presumably require support from the application class and are left abstract:
- clone
- curvePrimitiveType
- isSameCurvePrimitiveType
- isSameGeometryClass
- tryTransformInPlace
- reverseInPlace
