    \class QValueSpacePublisher

    \brief The QValueSpacePublisher class allows applications to publish values in the Value Space.

    \ingroup publishsubscribe

    When multiple Value Space layers are available QValueSpacePublisher only publishes values to
    the layer with the highest order.  The layers that QValueSpacePublisher can access can be
    limited by specifying either a \l {QValueSpace::LayerOption}{filter} or a QUuid at construction
    time.

    The lifetime of values published in the Value Space is specified by the particular Value Space
    layer that the value is published in.  For details on the different behaviors see
    QValueSpace::LayerOption.

    Once a value is published all applications in the system will have read access to it via the
    QValueSpaceSubscriber class.

    Although, logically, the Value Space is a simple collection of
    hierarchical paths, these paths can conceptually be visualized as a set of
    objects with attributes.  For example, rather than viewing the following list
    as 12 distinct Value Space paths:

    \code
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/eth0/Name
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/eth0/Type
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/eth0/Status
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/eth0/BytesSent
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/eth0/BytesReceived
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/eth0/Time
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/ppp0/Name
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/ppp0/Type
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/ppp0/Status
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/ppp0/BytesSent
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/ppp0/BytesReceived
    /Device/Network/Interfaces/ppp0/Time
    \endcode

    it can be thought of as describing two Value Space objects,
    \c { { /Device/Network/Interfaces/eth0, /Device/Network/Interfaces/ppp0 } },
    each with the six attributes \c { {Name, Type, Status, BytesSent,
    BytesReceived, Time} }.  The QValueSpacePublisher class encapsulates this
    abstraction.

    For performance reasons the setting of and removing of attributes is buffered
    internally by the QValueSpacePublisher and applied as a batch sometime later.
    Normally this occurs the next time the application enters the Qt event loop,
    but this behavior should not be relied upon.  If an application must
    synchronize with others, the QValueSpacePublisher::sync() and QValueSpacePublisher::syncAll()
    functions can be used to force the application of changes.  This call is generally unnecessary,
    and should be used sparingly to prevent unnecessary load on the system.
