// .NAME vtkGenericAttribute - abstract class defined API for attribute data
// .SECTION Description
// vtkGenericAttribute is an abstract class that defines an API for attribute
// data. Attribute data is data associated with the topology or geometry of
// a dataset (i.e., points, cells, etc.). vtkGenericAttribute is part of the
// adaptor framework (see GenericFiltering/README.html).
//
// vtkGenericAttribute provides a more general interface to attribute data
// than its counterpart vtkDataArray (which assumes a linear, contiguous
// array). It adopts an iterator interface, and allows attributes to be
// associated with points, edges, faces, or edges.
