 ## Introduction
 A RooTemplateProxy is used to hold references to other RooFit objects in an expression tree.
 A `RooGaussian(..., x, mean, sigma)` can e.g. store references to `x, mean, sigma` as
 ```
 RooTemplateProxy<RooAbsReal> _x;
 RooTemplateProxy<RooAbsReal> _mean;
 RooTemplateProxy<RooAbsReal> _sigma;
 ```
 Now, the values of these three can be accessed, and the template argument ensures that only objects that evaluate
 to real numbers (RooAbsReal) can be stored in such a proxy. These can e.g. be variables, PDFs and functions.
 To store an object that's a `RooCategory`, one would, for example, use
 ```
 RooTemplateProxy<RooCategory> _category;
 ```
 
 Since %ROOT 6.22, the proxy can be used like a pointer to an instance of the template argument.
 For this, it provides `operator*` and `operator->`, e.g.
 ```
 double oldValue = _x->getVal(normalisationSet);
 *_x = 17.;
 ```
 
 RooTemplateProxy's base class RooArgProxy registers the proxied objects as "servers" of the object
 that holds the proxy. When the value of the proxied object is changed, the owner is
 notified, and can recalculate its own value. Renaming or exchanging objects that
 serve values to the owner of the proxy is handled automatically.
 
 ## Modernisation of proxies in ROOT 6.22
 In ROOT 6.22, the classes RooRealProxy and RooCategoryProxy were replaced by RooTemplateProxy<class T>.
 
 Two typedefs have been defined for backward compatibility:
 - `RooRealProxy = RooTemplateProxy<RooAbsReal>`. Any generic object that converts to a real value.
 - `RooCategoryProxy = RooTemplateProxy<RooAbsCategory>`. Any category object.
 
 To modernise a class, one can change the template argument of the proxy to the most appropriate type,
 and increment the class version of the owner.

 // "thePdf" has to be checked manually.
 MyPdf::MyPdf(name, title, ...) :
   pdfProxy("pdfProxy", "Proxy holding a PDF", this, thePdf) {
   [ Extra checking here ... ]
 }
 
 
 // In .cxx: Accessing the proxy

 MyPdf::MyPdf(name, title, ...) :
   pdfProxy("pdfProxy", "Proxy holding a PDF", this, thePdf) {
 
 }
 
 
 // In .cxx: Accessing the proxy
 
 
 
 pdfProxy->fitTo(...);
 ~~~
 </table>
 
 
 ### How to modernise old code
 
 1. Choose the proper template argument for the proxy.
  - If a PDF is stored: `RooTemplateProxy<RooAbsPdf>`.
  - If a real-valued object is stored: `RooTemplateProxy<RooAbsReal>`.
  - If a category is stored: `RooTemplateProxy<RooCategory>`.
  - If a variable is stored (i.e. one wants to be able to assign values to it): `RooTemplateProxy<RooRealVar>`
  Other template arguments are possible, as long as they derive from RooAbsArg.
 2. Increment the class version of the owning class.
 3. Make sure that the right type is passed in the constructor of the proxy.
 4. Always use `proxy->` and `*proxy` to work with the stored object. No need to cast.
 5. **Only if necessary** If errors about missing symbols connected to RooTemplateProxy appear at link time,
    a specific template instantiation for RooTemplateProxy is not yet in ROOT's dictionaries.
    These two lines should be added to the LinkDef.h of the project:
    ~~~{.cpp}
        #pragma link C++ class RooTemplateProxy<RooMultiCategory>+;
        #pragma read sourceClass="RooCategoryProxy" targetClass="RooTemplateProxy<RooMultiCategory>"
    ~~~
    Replace `RooMultiCategory` by the proper type. If the proxy was holding a real-valued object, use `sourceClass="RooRealProxy"`.
 
    The first line adds the proxy class to the dictionary, the second line enables reading a legacy
    `RooCategoryProxy` from a file, and converting it to the new type-safe proxy. If no old proxies
    have to be read from files, this line can be omitted.
 
    If the template instantiation that triggered the missing symbols seems to be a very common instantiation,
    request for it to be added to RooFit by creating a pull request for ROOT. If it is rather uncommon,
    it is sufficient to add it to the LinkDef.h of the local project only.
