+/**
+ * @brief Used for searching.
+ * @ingroup Qt Search Client API
+ * Link against: qcpixsearchclient.lib 
+ * 
+ * An instance of QCPixSearcher is used to commit search operations.
+ * 
+ * Example code:
+ * 
+ * Usecase 1: Sync calls. 
+ * \code
+ * QCPixSearcher* searcher = QCPixSearcher::newInstance("root");
+ * if(searcher){
+ *		int hitCount = searcher->Search("search for me");
+ *		for(int i=0; i<hitCount; i++) {
+ *		QCPixDocument* doc = GetDocument(0);
+ *		// do something with doc.
+ *		delete doc;
+ *		}
+ *	}
+ * \endcode
+ * 
+ * Usecase 2: Sync calls with explicit SetDatabase().
+ * \code
+ * QCPixSearcher* searcher = QCPixSearcher::newInstance();
+ * searcher->SetDatabase("root");
+ * int hitCount = searcher->Search("search for me");
+ * for(int i=0; i<hitCount; i++) {
+ *		try{
+ *			QCPixDocument* doc = GetDocument(i);
+ *			// do something with doc.
+ *			delete doc;
+ *		catch(...){
+ *      //Do Cleanup
+ *		}
+ * }
+ * \endcode
+ * 
+ * Usecase 3: Async Calls
+ * \code
+ * 
+ * iCurrentDocumentCount = 0;
+ * 
+ * QCPixSearcher* searcher = QCPixSearcher::newInstance("root");
+ * connect(searcher, SIGNAL(handleSearchResults(int,int)), this, SLOT(ClientHandleSearchCompleteSlot(int,int)) );
+ * connect(searcher, SIGNAL(handleDocument(int,QCPixDocument*)), this, SLOT(ClientHandleGetDocumentCompleteSlot(int,QCPixDocument*)) );
+ * int hitCount = searcher->Search("search for me");
+ * GetDocumentAsync( iCurrentDocumentCount++ );
+ * 
+ * ClientClass::ClientHandleGetDocumentCompleteSlot(int aError, QCPixDocument* aDocument){
+ *  if( KErrNone != aError ){
+ *  //do something with aDocument
+ *  }
+ *  GetDocumentAsync( iCurrentDocumentCount++ ); //Now get the next document.
+ * }
+ * 
+ * \endcode
+ *
