/**
*  Class used for parsing landmark content.
*
*  When creating an instance of this class, the type (e.g. the mime type) of
*  the landmark content must be specified. The client will then receive a
*  parser implementation which understands the requested landmark content.
*
*  The client specifies landmark content either in a buffer or in a file. The
*  buffer/file is needed until the client no longer uses the parser object for
*  accessing the parsed data. If the buffer/file is deleted or modified, it
*  may not be possible to access the parsed landmark data.
*
*  @ref ParseContentL returns a @ref CPosLmOperation which means parsing can
*  be run incrementally. Each call to @ref CPosLmOperation::NextStep parses
*  one landmark. The landmark can be retrieved by calling @ref LandmarkLC.
*
*  Optionally, the client can specify that the parser should build an index.
*  An index enables direct access to all landmarks when the content has been
*  fully parsed. The content is fully parsed when CPosLmOperation::NextStep
*  or CPosLmOperation::ExecuteL complete with KErrNone. The @ref LandmarkLC method
*  then can be called with landmark index to directly access any of parsed
*  landmarks.
*
*  If @ref CPosLandmarkParser is used, the client must call the global
*  function @ref ReleaseLandmarkResources before terminating, in order to
*  release all used landmark resources, otherwise the client may receive
*  an ALLOC panic.
*
