// Class description:
//
// Templated driver class which controls the integration error of a 
// Runge-Kutta stepper.
// It's purpose is to provide a replacement of G4MagIntegratorDriver
// and work for all types of steppers.  
// It will serve as the driver of choice for steppers which do not 
// have extra capabilities, in particular First Same As Last (FSAL)
// and/or interpolation.
