      NOTE: It is important to explicitly cast the instance exactly as IFaceWOODE* as
      the input parameter, not anything else.
      For example, if the WOODE::ODEinitializeInODE() invokes
      'ODEPhysicsEngine->onAddNewPhysicsActorToSimulation( (IFaceWOODE*)this );'
      the explicit (IFaceWOODE*) cast on 'this' is REQUIRED. Failure to do so will
      cause a pointer to 'this', which is a multiply virtual inherited object to be
      used instead. This multiply virtual inherited object is not able to be properly
      downcast using c-style (static) casting, as a result the internal member variables
      and methods are not properly set; this causes errors when the physics engine
      operates on the data.
