/**
 * KArtsFloatWatch offers an easy way to watch aRts streams via Qt signals.
 * For instance, if you have an object of the following type:
 *
 * \code
 * interface StereoVolumeControl : StereoEffect {
 *   attribute float scaleFactor;
 *   readonly attribute float currentVolumeLeft;
 *   readonly attribute float currentVolumeRight;
 * };
 * \endcode
 *
 * and you want to get notified when scaleFactor changes, you could do it
 * like this:
 *
 * \code
 *   StereoVolumeControl stereoVolumeControl = ...;
 *   KArtsFloatWatch *w = new KArtsFloatWatch(stereoVolumeControl, "scaleFactor_changed", this);
 *   connect(w, TQT_SIGNAL(valueChanged(float)), this, TQT_SLOT(setValue(float)));
 * \endcode
