    \class HbDeviceDialogPlugin
    \brief HbDeviceDialogPlugin is an abstract base class for device dialog widget plugins.

    Device dialogs are widgets which are shown on top of all applications by a device dialog
    service. The service queues and displays device dialogs according to client requests and
    system state. The service displays widgets in it's window (HbApplication window).

    \section _creation Creation of device dialogs

    Device dialog widgets are created by plugins. The service loads a plugin to create and display
    a device dialog. A single plugin may implement several different dialogs or just one.

    \subsection _identification Identification

    Dialogs are identified by a string. By convention the string should follow
    inverted domain name format. For example com.nokia.hb.devicedialog.note/1.0.
    Function deviceDialogTypes() returns a list of dialog types the plugin implements.

    \subsection _versioning Versioning

    Appending version number into device dialog type string enables versioning of device dialogs.
    A plugin should handle versioning by returning device dialog type string for all versions it
    implements in deviceDialogTypes() and then in createDeviceDialog() create a device dialog
    instance compatible with the version requested. This could always be the latest version if it
    is backwards compatible with older versions. Device dialog framework is unaware of version
    numbers in type strings. It performs string comparison of the whole string when searching
    for a plugin.

    \subsection _widgets Dialog widgets

    Device dialog widgets have to be derived from HbPopup either directly or by ancestry.

    Device dialog widget can be derived from existing Hb class, eg. HbDialog or constructed from
    a docml using HbDocumentLoader. Structure of the plugin differs depending on which approach
    is selected. If docml is used the dialog widget cannot be multiple inherited from HbDialog
    and HbDeviceDialogInterface. In this case a container can be used to to create and manage the
    widget. See code example at the end.

    \section _types Types of device dialogs

    Device dialogs are divided into four groups:

    - Generic
    - Notification
    - Indicator-menu
    - Security

    The group dictates how and when a dialog is shown. Generic and notification dialogs are
    intended for application use. Indicator-menu and security dialogs are for platform.
    Each dialog indicates which group it belongs to. The group need not be fixed.
    It may change depending on create parameters.

    \subsection _priority Priority

    Device dialog groups prioritize device dialogs (z-order) in respect to other groups.
    Dialogs belonging to the same group are displayed in order requests are received.
    Popup framework is utilized to manage z-order of dialogs. Z-order is set by devicedialog
    framework and device dialogs themselves should not change the popup z-order.

    \section _security Security

    Plugins are responsible for maintaining system security for their own part. If plugin
    performs operations that may compromise security or want's to limit access to specific
    clients, it should check client security credentials in accessAllowed() function.
    Device dialog framework calls this function before creating or attaching client to a
    plugin if HbDeviceDialogPlugin::SecurityCheck is set. Access is denied if the
    function returns false. In addition, HbDeviceDialogPlugin constructor has a check which
    allows only device dialog service to load plugins derived from it.

    \section _checklist Checklist for well behaving device dialogs

    Well behaving dialog widget should observe following rules:
    - Should not create and show other dialogs
    - No calls to show(), hide() or setVisible()
    - Not setting popup Z-order
    - No time consuming operations performed

    \section _platform_hbdevicedialogplugin Platform-specific implementation notes for HbDeviceDialogPlugin

    \subsection _nonsymbian Non-Symbian

    The server is implemented only for the Symbian platform. On other platforms, plugins are loaded into client
    process and dialogs shown on client's main window.

    Plugin executables are searched from application's current directory and HB_PLUGINS_DIR/devicedialogs
    directory.

    \subsection _symbian Symbian

    Plugins are run by a server with platform security capabilities ProtServ, SwEvent,
    TrustedUI and ReadDeviceData. If a plugin doesn't have required platform security
    capabilities it will not load.

    Device dialog plugins can be installed into a device. Plugins are searched from device's
    local drives. The search order is rom-drives, non-removable drives and removable drives.
    Search order inside each group is alphabethical. Eclipsing is allowed only if plugin file
    names are the same. This means that in order to replace a device dialog in a plugin earlier
    in search order, the file name of the replacement plugin has to be the same as the the one
    it replaces.

    Device dialog plugin stubs (.qtplugin) are searched from /resource/plugins/devicedialogs directory
    and executables in /sys/bin directory in each drive.

    \section _creation Creating a plugin

    Creating a device dialog plugin and widget involves following steps.
    - Set in .pro file TEMPLATE = lib and CONFIG += hb plugin
    - Derive a class from HbPopup or derivatives and HbDeviceDialogInterface
    The example below is <b>not using docml</b> and dialog widget is derived from HbDialog and
    HbDeviceDialogInterface.
    \code
    class HbSampleMessageBoxWidget : public HbMessageBox, public HbDeviceDialogInterface
    {
        Q_OBJECT
    \endcode
    - Implement device dialog widget and HbDeviceDialogInterface interface. Declare and emit
      deviceDialogClosed and optionally deviceDialogData signals. Do not call show(), hide() or
      setVisible() in the plugin. Device dialog framework calls show() to display the widget.
    \code
    public:
        bool setDeviceDialogParameters(const QVariantMap &parameters);
        int deviceDialogError() const;
        void closeDeviceDialog(bool byClient);
        HbPopup *deviceDialogWidget() const;
    signals:
        void deviceDialogClosed();
        void deviceDialogData(QVariantMap data);
    \endcode
    - Wrap the widget into a plugin derived from HbDeviceDialogPlugin
    \code
    class HbSampleMessageBoxPlugin : public HbDeviceDialogPlugin
    {
        Q_OBJECT
    \endcode
    - Implement HbDeviceDialogPlugin pure virtual functions
    \code
        bool accessAllowed(const QString &deviceDialogType,
            const QVariantMap &parameters, const QVariantMap &securityInfo) const;
        HbDeviceDialogInterface *createDeviceDialog(const QString &deviceDialogType, const QVariantMap &parameters);
        bool deviceDialogInfo(const QString &deviceDialogType,
            const QVariantMap &parameters, DeviceDialogInfo *info) const;
        QStringList deviceDialogTypes() const;
        PluginFlags pluginFlags() const;
        int error() const;
    \endcode

            HbSampleMessageBoxPlugin [label = "HbSampleMessageBoxPlugin"];
            QObject [label = "QObject"];

            QObject -> HbDeviceDialogPlugin [label = "is a"];
            HbDeviceDialogPluginInterface -> HbDeviceDialogPlugin [label = "is a"];
            HbDeviceDialogPlugin -> HbSampleMessageBoxPlugin [label = "is a"];

            HbSampleMessageBoxWidget [label = "HbSampleMessageBoxWidget"];
            HbMessageBox [label = "HbMessageBox"];
            HbDeviceDialogInterface [label = "HbDeviceDialogInterface"];
            HbMessageBox -> HbSampleMessageBoxWidget [label = "is a"];
            HbDeviceDialogInterface -> HbSampleMessageBoxWidget [label = "is a"];

            edge [fontsize = 10, style = dotted];
            HbSampleMessageBoxPlugin -> HbSampleMessageBoxWidget  [label = "creates"];
        }

        subgraph cluster_key {
            label = "Key";
            style=solid;
            node [shape = box, style=solid, fontsize = 10];
            Class1 [label = "Class"];
            Class2 [label = "Class"];
            Class3 [label = "Class"];

            Class2 -> Class1 [label = "generalization"];
            edge [fontsize = 10, style = dotted];
            Class3 -> Class1 [label = "dependency"];
            }
    }
    \enddot

    The example below is <b>using docml</b> and dialog widget is managed by a container.
    \code
    class HbSampleDialogContainer : public QObject, public HbDeviceDialogInterface
    {
        Q_OBJECT
    \endcode
    - In the constructor create the dialog widget using HbDocumentLoader
    - Implement HbDeviceDialogInterface functions
      - From deviceDialogWidget() function return the created (docml) widget
      - From signalSender() function return the container (HbSampleDialogContainer)
    - Declare and emit deviceDialogClosed and optionally deviceDialogData signals.
    - Do not call show(), hide() or setVisible() in the plugin. Device dialog
      framework calls show() to display the widget.
    \code
    public:
        bool setDeviceDialogParameters(const QVariantMap &parameters);
        int deviceDialogError() const;
        void closeDeviceDialog(bool byClient);
        HbPopup *deviceDialogWidget() const;
        QObject *signalSender() const;
    signals:
        void deviceDialogClosed();
        void deviceDialogData(QVariantMap data);
    \endcode
    - Wrap the widget into a plugin derived from HbDeviceDialogPlugin
    \code
    class HbSampleDeviceDialogPlugin : public HbDeviceDialogPlugin
    {
        Q_OBJECT
    \endcode
    - Implement HbDeviceDialogPlugin pure virtual functions
      - Return the container (HbSampleDialogContainer) from createDeviceDialog() function
    \code
        bool accessAllowed(const QString &deviceDialogType,
            const QVariantMap &parameters, const QVariantMap &securityInfo) const;
        HbDeviceDialogInterface *createDeviceDialog(const QString &deviceDialogType, const QVariantMap &parameters);
        bool deviceDialogInfo(const QString &deviceDialogType,
            const QVariantMap &parameters, DeviceDialogInfo *info) const;

    \class HbDeviceDialogInterface
    \brief HbDeviceDialogInterface is an abstract interface class for a device dialog widget.

    Device dialogs are widgets which are shown on top of all applications by a device dialog service.
    Widgets are created by plugins. Device dialog service uses this interface to update widget
    parameters and close widget.

    The widget implementation must implement this interface. In addition it must provide a
    deviceDialogClosed() signal and optionally deviceDialogData() signal if data needs to be
    passed to a client.

    Device dialog widgets must be derived from HbPopup or derivatives as described in
    HbDeviceDialogPlugin.

    Following popup convention, the widget is not visible immediately after is created.
    Device dialog framework calls HbPopup::show() to display the widget.
    The service may change visibility of the widget by HbPopup::setVisible function.

    The widget should close itself by either a timeout or user interaction. It may also be closed
    gracefully either by system or the client by a closeDeviceDialog() function. It is assumed that
    the widget object can be ungracefully destroyed (delete) at any time.

    \b Signals:

    \b void \b deviceDialogClosed()

    Device dialog widget must implement this signal. The widget should emit this signal
    when it has disappeared from a display and can be deleted. It is important this signal is
    emitted as device dialog service relies on it to detect the widget closing.

    \b void \b deviceDialogData(QVariantMap data)

    This signal is emitted by a device dialog widget to send data to a client. The signal
    is optional. If the widget does not provide any data, the signal is not needed. \a data
    contains data from the widget. The data is passed unmodified to the client. The structure
    and meaning of the data is a contract between the widget and a client.

    Returns a pointer to an object that is a sender of deviceDialogClosed() and deviceDialogData()
    signals. There is a default implementation which returns null. In this case it is assumed that
    the device dialog widget is the signal source. This function may be overridden for example in
    a case where the dialog widget is encapsulated by a container class which sends the required
    signals. Note that there has to be one to one relationship between the widget and the sender.
    I.e. there is a one sender object per widget.

    \class HbDeviceDialogPluginInterface
    \brief HbDeviceDialogPluginInterface is an abstract interface that identifies a device dialog plugin.

    This class is not intended for direct derivation. Instead a device dialog plugin should be derived
    from HbDeviceDialogPlugin. This class declares createDeviceDialog() function which the plugin must
    implement.

/*!
    \fn virtual HbDeviceDialogPluginInterface *HbDeviceDialogPluginInterface::createDeviceDialog(
        const QString &deviceDialogType, const QVariantMap &parameters) = 0

    Called by device dialog framework to create a device dialog widget. The widget should be
    left unvisible. The framework calls show() at a suitable time to make it visible.
    Returns a pointer to the device dialog widget interface or null if widget cannot be created.

    \param deviceDialogType Device dialog type to create.
    \param parameters Device dialog parameters. The structure and meaning of parameters is a
    contract between the plugin and a client.
