/** A property class for workspaces. Inherits from PropertyWithValue, with the
value being
a pointer to the workspace type given to the WorkspaceProperty constructor. This
kind
of property also holds the name of the workspace (as used by the
AnalysisDataService)
and an indication of whether it is an input or output to an algorithm (or both).

The pointers to the workspaces are fetched from the ADS when the properties are
validated
(i.e. when the PropertyManager::validateProperties() method calls isValid() ).
Pointers to output workspaces are also fetched, if they exist, and can then be
used within
an algorithm. (An example of when this might be useful is if the user wants to
write the
output into the same workspace as is used for input - this avoids creating a new
workspace
and the overwriting the old one at the end.)
