<P>
Generic view tool interface to assist in tool management.
This interface provides the <A HREF="../../../../../../org/apache/velocity/tools/view/tools/ViewTool.html#init(java.lang.Object)"><CODE>init(Object initData)</CODE></A> method
as a hook for ToolboxManager implementations to pass data in to
tools to initialize them. See
<A HREF="../../../../../../org/apache/velocity/tools/view/ViewToolInfo.html" title="class in org.apache.velocity.tools.view"><CODE>ViewToolInfo</CODE></A> for more on this.
