QOrbitermanager

QOrbiter manager is what it sounds like. It manages the flow of operations in QOrbiter between the different context objects and the threaded dce side of the program. It can be accessed through 'manager'

QorbiterManger is the Qt object responsible for managing the initial setup state of the orbiter, as well as containing some key properties and signals. It is also used and an intermediary object, emitting cross thread signals from the UI to prevent blocking operations.

Functions and Properties can be accessed via manager.function() or manager.propertyName
