// *****************************************************************************
//
// CLASS DESCRIPTION (MDataHandle)
//
//	An MDataHandle is a smart pointer into a data block (MDataBlock).  A data
//	handle corresponds to the data for a particular attribute or plug.  For
//	array data (eg CVs of a curve) use an MArrayDataHandle.  To get a data
//	handle, request it from the data block.
