+/**
+ * @short Base class to build dynamically loaded menu entries for the K-menu, or the panel.
+ *
+ * This class allows to build menu entries that will be dynamically added either to
+ * the K-menu, or to the panel as a normal button. These dynamic menus are located
+ * in shared libraries that will be loaded at runtime by Kicker (the %KDE panel).
+ *
+ * To build such a menu, you have to inherit this class and implement the pure virtual
+ * functions #initialize() and slotExec(). You also have to provide a factory
+ * object in your library, see KLibFactory. This factory is only used to construct
+ * the menu object.
+ *
+ * Finally, you also have to provide a desktop file describing your dynamic menu. The
+ * relevant entries are: Name, Comment, Icon and X-KDE-Library (which contains the
+ * library name without any extension). This desktop file has to be installed in
+ * $KDEDIR/share/apps/kicker/menuext/.
