/**
 *  This class handles dynamic name-value pair storing.
 *  Be warned, all actions are final.
 *
 *
 *  This is how this component works:
 *  It has two tables. First one, the column table, contains only single row.
 *  This table is actually a header table for the record table. When you set
 *  an new attribute, we check that does it already exist in column table. If
 *  it does not, it is added as last entry. After that data of the attribute 
 *  is set to the record table into same column as it is attribute name is in
 *  the column table. Row of the settings record is determined by
 *  given settingsrecordid.
 *
 *  The column table can hold 0xFFFE (65534) of different user attributes
 *  and you can add 0xFF (255) different settingsrecords.
 *
 *  Below is an picture of the tables. Only the ID column is mandatory. All 
 *  other columns are defined by user.
 *
 *   ------------------------------------------------------------
 *   | COLUMNS TABLE                                             |
 *   |-----------------------------------------------------------
 *   | 1  |     2       |      3      |    4     |  5... |      |
 *   ------------------------------------------------------------
 *   | ID | SERVER-ADDR | SERVER-PORT | USERNAME | etc...|      |
 *   ------------------------------------------------------------
 *   
 *   ------------------------------------------------------------
 *   | RECORDS TABLE                                            |
 *   |-----------------------------------------------------------
 *   |  1 |          2          |  3   |    4    |  5... |      |

 *   ------------------------------------------------------------
 * 
 *  Usage examples: 
 *  @code
 *  ---- Example 1 ----------------------------------------------
 *   Usage example:
 *   First Create settings record:
 *
 *   TUint32 settingId(0);
 *   CXmppSettingsApi* sapi = CXmppSettingsApi::NewLC();
 *   sapi->CreateSettingsRecordL( settingId );
 *   CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy( sapi );
 *
 *   The settingId contains now new id.
 *
 * ---- Example 2 ----------------------------------------------
 *   You can request default settings record (currently returns the first):
 *
 *   TUint32 settingId(0);
 *   sapi->DefaultSettingsRecordL( settingId );
 *
 *   The settingId contains now the id.
 *
 *  ---- Example 3 ----------------------------------------------
 *   When you want to add new parameter to the settings record, do following:
 *
 *   _LIT( KOurParam, "USERNAME");
 *
 *   sapi->SetParamL( settingId,
 *                    KOurParam(),
 *                    aUsername );
 *
 *   If this is the first time the parameter is added to the settings record,
 *   it creates new room for it.
 *
 *  ---- Example 4 ----------------------------------------------
 *   When you want to get parameter from the settings record, do following:
 *
 *   _LIT( KOurParam, "USERNAME");
 *   RBuf value;
 *   value.CreateL( KMaxParamLength );
 *
 *   sapi->SetParamL( settingId,
 *                    KOurParam(),
 *                    value );
 *
 *   Value now contains the value recordd in the settings record. If no value
 *   has been set for this settins records column, then it cannot be
 *   found ->leaves KErrNotFound.
