    /**
     * @class Ext.layout.AnchorLayout
     * @extends Ext.layout.ContainerLayout
     * This is a layout that enables anchoring of contained elements relative to the container's dimensions.
     * If the container is resized, all anchored items are automatically rerendered according to their
     * {@link #anchor} rules.
     * This class is intended to be extended or created via the layout:'anchor' {@link Ext.Container#layout}
     * config, and should generally not need to be created directly via the new keyword.
     * AnchorLayout does not have any direct config options (other than inherited ones). By default,
     * AnchorLayout will calculate anchor measurements based on the size of the container itself. However, the
     * container using the AnchorLayout can supply an anchoring-specific config property of anchorSize.
     * If anchorSize is specifed, the layout will use it as a virtual container for the purposes of calculating
     * anchor measurements based on it instead, allowing the container to be sized independently of the anchoring
     * logic if necessary.  For example:
     *
    var viewport = new Ext.Viewport({
        layout:'anchor',
        anchorSize: {width:800, height:600},
        items:[{
            title:'Item 1',
            html:'Content 1',
            width:800,
            anchor:'right 20%'
        },{
            title:'Item 2',
            html:'Content 2',
            width:300,
            anchor:'50% 30%'
        },{
            title:'Item 3',
            html:'Content 3',
            width:600,
            anchor:'-100 50%'
        }]
    });
     *
     */
    Ext.layout.AnchorLayout = Ext.extend(Ext.layout.ContainerLayout, {
        /**
         * @cfg {String} anchor
         * This configuation option is to be applied to child items of a container managed by
         * this layout (ie. configured with layout:'anchor').

         *
         * This value is what tells the layout how an item should be anchored to the container. items
         * added to an AnchorLayout accept an anchoring-specific config property of anchor which is a string
         * containing two values: the horizontal anchor value and the vertical anchor value (for example, '100% 50%').
         * The following types of anchor values are supported:
         *
         * Percentage : Any value between 1 and 100, expressed as a percentage.
         * The first anchor is the percentage width that the item should take up within the container, and the
         * second is the percentage height.  For example:
    // two values specified
    anchor: '100% 50%' // render item complete width of the container and
                       // 1/2 height of the container
    // one value specified
    anchor: '100%'     // the width value; the height will default to auto
         *
         *
         * Offsets : Any positive or negative integer value.
         * This is a raw adjustment where the first anchor is the offset from the right edge of the container,
         * and the second is the offset from the bottom edge. For example:
    // two values specified
    anchor: '-50 -100' // render item the complete width of the container
                       // minus 50 pixels and
                       // the complete height minus 100 pixels.
    // one value specified
    anchor: '-50'      // anchor value is assumed to be the right offset value
                       // bottom offset will default to 0
         *
         *
         * Sides : Valid values are 'right' (or 'r') and 'bottom'
         * (or 'b').
         * Either the container must have a fixed size or an anchorSize config value defined at render time in
         * order for these to have any effect.
         *
         * Mixed :
         * Anchor values can also be mixed as needed.  For example, to render the width offset from the container
         * right edge by 50 pixels and 75% of the container's height use:
         *
    anchor: '-50 75%'
         *
         *
