/**********************************************************************
- File Name: Mediator.h
- Date: 12/9/2003 5:19:00 PM
- Author: Michael Sheinin
- Description : 
	The declaration of the CMediator class. This class is intended to decouple
	CDocumentData, CDocumentView and CWindow objects.
- Notes: 
	1.This class/object is resposible for the window creation and destruction.
	2.Obviously this class is NOT thread-safe if document and data objects are
	  ussue requests to an object of this class in contexts of different threads.
