// .NAME vtkInformationQuadratureSchemeDefinitionVectorKey - Key for vtkQuadratureSchemeDefinition vector values.
// .SECTION Description
// vtkInformationQuadratureSchemeDefinitionVectorKey is used to represent keys for double
// vector values in vtkInformation.h. NOTE the interface in this key differs
// from that in other similar keys because of our internal use of smart
// pointers.
