\e OptionServer sets options to classed derived from optionVI and previously declared 
into its server.<br>
\e OptionServer reads and sets options from an external file.<br>
<ul>
        <li> The options can be set to classes derived from optionVI.They should be declared
        into the server, using the method \c addToServer().
        Every object should have a unique name into the server.
        <li> The \c setOption() method allows to set a collection of options from a external
        file. The options should be listed in the file in the following way: 
        \e "objectName parName parType parContent",
        where \e parType can be "S" for string, "D" for double or "I" for integer.
        A line started with \e "//" in the file will be ignored and it can be use to put comments).
        <li> Use the method \c setOptionFileName() to set the name of the file with 
        the list of options to apply.
        <li> Options can be apply from a external client via the methods \c setOption(objectName, parName, parContent).
        The option is called parName and the content is parContent. 
</ul>
