+/**
+ * \class PluginChannelAdapter PluginChannelAdapter.h <vamp-sdk/hostext/PluginChannelAdapter.h>
+ *
+ * PluginChannelAdapter is a Vamp plugin adapter that implements a
+ * policy for management of plugins that expect a different number of
+ * input channels from the number actually available in the source
+ * audio data.
+ *
+ * A host using PluginChannelAdapter may ignore the getMinChannelCount
+ * and getMaxChannelCount reported by the plugin, and still expect the
+ * plugin to run.
+ *
+ * PluginChannelAdapter implements the following policy:
+ *
+ *  - If the plugin supports the provided number of channels directly,
+ *  PluginChannelAdapter will just run the plugin as normal.
+ *
+ *  - If the plugin only supports exactly one channel but more than
+ *  one channel is provided, PluginChannelAdapter will use the mean of
+ *  the channels.  This ensures that the resulting values remain
+ *  within the same magnitude range as expected for mono data.
+ *
+ *  - If the plugin requires more than one channel but exactly one is
+ *  provided, the provided channel will be duplicated across all the
+ *  plugin input channels.
+ *
+ * If none of the above apply:
+ * 
+ *  - If the plugin requires more channels than are provided, the
+ *  minimum acceptable number of channels will be produced by adding
+ *  empty (zero valued) channels to those provided.
+ *
+ *  - If the plugin requires fewer channels than are provided, the
+ *  maximum acceptable number of channels will be produced by
+ *  discarding the excess channels.
+ *
+ * Hosts requiring a different channel policy from the above will need
+ * to implement it themselves, instead of using PluginChannelAdapter.
+ *
+ * Note that PluginChannelAdapter does not override the minimum and
+ * maximum channel counts returned by the wrapped plugin.  The host
+ * will need to be aware that it is using a PluginChannelAdapter, and
+ * be prepared to ignore these counts as necessary.  (This contrasts
+ * with the approach used in PluginInputDomainAdapter, which aims to
+ * make the host completely unaware of which underlying input domain
+ * is in fact in use.)
+ * 
+ * (The rationale for this is that a host may wish to use the
+ * PluginChannelAdapter but still discriminate in some way on the
+ * basis of the number of channels actually supported.  For example, a
+ * simple stereo audio host may prefer to reject plugins that require
+ * more than two channels on the grounds that doesn't actually
+ * understand what they are for, rather than allow the channel adapter
+ * to make a potentially meaningless channel conversion for them.)
+ *
+ * In every respect other than its management of channels, the
+ * PluginChannelAdapter behaves identically to the plugin that it
+ * wraps.  The wrapped plugin will be deleted when the wrapper is
+ * deleted.
+ *
+ * \note This class was introduced in version 1.1 of the Vamp plugin SDK.
