/**
* Active object wrapper for Central Repository one-shot notification handling.
* Central Repository Notification Handler API provides an easy-to-use 
* implementation of a CActive-based wrapper for Central Repository single-shot
* notifications. In most cases Central Repository Notification Handler can 
* automatically resubscribe to notifications and fetch the modified value from
* Central Repository. 
* The API consists of the classes CCenRepNotifyHandler and 
* MCenRepNotifyHandlerCallback. The user of this class needs to implement relevant
* MCenRepNotifyHandlerCallback interface methods to receive notifications. 
* The user of Central Repository Notification Handler API needs access to 
* Central Repository (centralrepository.h).
*
* Usage:
*  
* Initialization example (from a class that implements MCenRepNotifyHandlerCallback interface):
* @code
* iSession = CRepository::NewL(KTestUid);
* iNotifyHandler = CCenRepNotifyHandler::NewL(*this, *iSession, CCenRepNotifyHandler::EStringKey, KKey1);
* iNotifyHandler->StartListeningL();
* @endcode
*
* Uninitialization example:
* @code
* iNotifyHandler->StopListening(); 
* delete iNotifyHandler;
* @endcode
*
* Handler method implementation example:
* @code
* void CMyCenRepNotifyTest::HandleNotifyString(TUint32 aId, const TDesC16&  aNewValue)
*    {
*    // Print out the notified value
*    RDebug::Print(_L("Key %d changed, new value: %S"), aId, &aNewValue);
*    }
* @endcode
*
* @publishedAll
* @released
