    \class QAbstractValueSpaceLayer
    \brief The QAbstractValueSpaceLayer class provides support for adding new logical data layers
           to the Qt Value Space.
    \inmodule QtPublishSubscribe
    \ingroup publishsubscribe
    \internal
    \since 1.0

    To create a new layer in the Value Space subclass this class and reimplement all of the virtual
    functions.  The new layer is installed by either calling QValueSpace::installLayer() or by
    adding the QVALUESPACE_AUTO_INSTALL_LAYER() macro in your implementation file.
*/

/*!
    \internal

    \macro QVALUESPACE_AUTO_INSTALL_LAYER(className)

    \relates QAbstractValueSpaceLayer

    This macro installs new Value Space layer. \a className is the name of the class implementing
    the new layer.

    The method \c {className *className::instance()} must exist and return a pointer to an instance
    of the layer to install.  This method will only be invoked \i {after} QApplication has been
    constructed, making it safe to use any Qt class in your layer's constructor.

    This macro can only be used once for any given class and it should be used where the
    implementation is written rather than in a header file.
*/

/*!
    \typedef QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::Handle

    The Handle type is an opaque, pointer sized contextual handle used to represent paths within
    Value Space layers.  Handles are only ever created by QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::item() and are
    always released by calls to QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::removeHandle().  The special value,
    \c {InvalidHandle} is reserved to represent an invalid handle.
*/

/*!
    \enum QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::Type

    Value Space layers are initialized in either a "Server" or a "Client" context.  There is only
    a single server in the Value Space architecture, and its layers are always initialized before
    any clients.  This distinction allows layers to implement Client/Server architecture
    \i {if required}.  If not, layers are free to treat Server and Client contexts identically.

    \value Server The layer is being initialized in the "server" context.
    \value Client The layer is being initialized in the "client" context.
*/

/*!
    \enum QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::Properties

    To allow for efficient layer implementations, expensive handle operations, currently only
    monitoring for changes, are enabled and disabled as needed on a per-handle basis.  The
    Properties enumeration is a bitmask representing the different properties that can exist on a
    handle.

    \value Publish Enable change notification for the handle.  When set, the layer should emit
                   QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::handleChanged() signals when appropriate for the
                   handle.
*/

/*!
    \fn QString QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::name()

    Returns the name of the Value Space layer.  This name is only used for diagnostics purposes.

*/

/*!
    \fn bool QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::startup(Type type)

    Called by the Value Space system to initialize each layer.  The \a type parameter will be set
    accordingly, and layer implementors can use this to implement a client/server architecture if
    desired.

    Returns true upon success; otherwise returns false.
    \since 1.0
*/

/*!
    \fn QUuid QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::id()

    Returns a globally unique identifier for the layer.  This id is used to break ordering ties.
    \since 1.0
*/

/*!
    \fn unsigned int QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::order()

    Return the position in the Value Space layer stack that this layer should reside.  Higher
    numbers mean the layer has a higher precedence and its values will "shadow" those below it.
    If two layers specify the same ordering, the id() value is used to break the tie.
    \since 1.0
*/

/*!
    \fn Handle QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::item(Handle parent, const QString &subPath)

    Returns a new opaque handle for the requested \a subPath of \a parent.  If \a parent is an
    InvalidHandle, \a subPath is interpreted as an absolute path.

    The caller should call removeHandle() to free resources used by the handle when it is no longer
    required.
    \since 1.0
*/

    Returns the value for a particular \a handle.  If a value is available, the layer will set

    \fn QSet<QString> QAbstractValueSpaceLayer::children(Handle handle)

    Returns the set of children of \a handle.  For example, in a layer providing the following
    items:

    \code
        /Device/Configuration/Applications/FocusedApplication
        /Device/Configuration/Buttons/PrimaryInput
        /Device/Configuration/Name

    Registers or unregisters that the caller is interested in \a handle and any subpaths under it.

    The caller should ensure that all calls to this function with \a interested set to true have a
