Subject: Do not actually define the general Table class.
X-Git-Tag: v9.3.0-rc1~162^2
X-Git-Url: https://gitweb.dealii.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=refs%2Fpull%2F12109%2Fhead;p=dealii.git

Do not actually define the general Table class.

The class is exclusively used through its specializations. There is no need to
provide a general implementation. It is also currently unusable since the
class has no non-trivial constructors, so nobody could have used the general
template for anything useful.
