-/** 
-  @class
-  
-  Base class for managing a view.  View's provide two functions:
-  
-  1. They translate state and events into drawing instructions for the 
-     web browser and
-  
-  2. They act as first responders for incoming keyboard, mouse, and 
-     touch events.
-  
-  h2. View Initialization
-  
-  When a view is setup, there are several methods you can override that 
-  will be called at different times depending on how your view is created.
-  Here is a guide to which method you want to override and when:
-  
-  - *init:* override this method for any general object setup (such as 
-    observers, starting timers and animations, etc) that you need to happen 
-    everytime the view is created, regardless of whether or not its layer 
-    exists yet.
-    
-  - *render:* override this method to generate or update your HTML to reflect
-    the current state of your view.  This method is called both when your view
-    is first created and later anytime it needs to be updated.
-
-  - *didCreateLayer:* the render() method is used to generate new HTML.  
-    Override this method to perform any additional setup on the DOM you might
-    need to do after creating the view.  For example, if you need to listen
-    for events.
-    
-  - *willDestroyLayer:* if you implement didCreateLayer() to setup event 
-    listeners, you should implement this method as well to remove the same 
-    just before the DOM for your view is destroyed.
-    
-  - *updateLayer:* Normally, when a view needs to update its content, it will
-    re-render the view using the render() method.  If you would like to 
-    override this behavior with your own custom updating code, you can 
-    replace updateLayer() with your own implementation instead.
