+/**
+ * KServiceRegistry allows you to announce your service using SLP (RFC 2608).
+ *
+ * Use KServiceRegistry to announce a service. The service will be valid
+ * until its lifespan ends, you unregister it or delete the KServiceRegistry,
+ * whatever comes first.
+ * A service will be described using a Service URL and an optional list of
+ * attributes. The syntax for a simple Service URL is
+ * <pre>
+ * service:%srvtype%://%addrspec%
+ * </pre>
+ * where "%srvtype%" specifies the protocol and "%addrspec5" the address.
+ * Examples of valid Service URLs are "service:http://www.kde.org",
+ * "service:lpr://printer.example.org/myqueure" and
+ * "service:http://your.server.org:8080".
+ * To provide more information about your service than just the protocol,
+ * port and address you can use abstract service types.
+ * A Service URL that uses an abstract service type has the form
+ * <pre>
+ * service:%abstract-type%:%concrete-type%
+ * </pre>
+ * where %abstract-type% describes the kind of service and %concrete-type% specifies
+ * the protocol and address. Examples are
+ * "service:printer:lpr://printer.example.com/lp0" and
+ * "service:printer:ipp://printer.example.com/".
+ * Note that you cannot invent you own types but only take those that are
+ * registered at IANA. To create your own service type you must become a naming
+ * authority. Then you can use service types of the form
+ * "%srvtype%.%naming-authority%". Assuming that "kde" is the id of a
+ * IANA-registered naming authority, a valid Service URL would be
+ * "service:weatherp.kde://weather.example.com". You can find more information
+ * about Service URLs in the IETF RFCs 2608 and 3224.
+ * Additionally each service can have one or more attributes to carry
+ * additional information about the service. Attributes are a simple pair of
+ * strings, one for the attributes name and one for the value. They can be
+ * used, for example, to describe the type of a printer or the email address
+ * of an administrator.
+ *
+ * Service templates can be used to describe an abstract type, including the
+ * syntax of the concrete type and the attributes. The use of service
+ * templates is described in RFC 2609, you can find the existing service
+ * templates at http://www.iana.org/assignments/svrloc-templates.htm .
+ *
+ * Example:
+ * <pre>
+ * KServiceRegistry ksr;
+ * KInetAddress kia = KInetAddress->getLocalAddress();
+ * ksr.registerService(QString("service:remotedesktop.kde:vnc://%1:0").arg(kia->nodeName()),
+ * "(type=shared)");
+ * delete kia;
+ * </pre>
