/**
* KServiceRegistry allows you to announce your service using SLP (RFC 2608).
*
* Use KServiceRegistry to announce a service. The service will be valid
* until its lifespan ends, you unregister it or delete the KServiceRegistry,
* whatever comes first.
* A service will be described using a Service URL and an optional list of
* attributes. The syntax for a simple Service URL is
* <pre>
* service:%srvtype%://%addrspec%
* </pre>
* where "%srvtype%" specifies the protocol and "%addrspec5" the address.
* Examples of valid Service URLs are "service:http://www.kde.org",
* "service:lpr://printer.example.org/myqueure" and
* "service:http://your.server.org:8080".
* To provide more information about your service than just the protocol,
* port and address you can use abstract service types.
* A Service URL that uses an abstract service type has the form
* <pre>
* service:%abstract-type%:%concrete-type%
* </pre>
* where %abstract-type% describes the kind of service and %concrete-type% specifies
* the protocol and address. Examples are
* "service:printer:lpr://printer.example.com/lp0" and
* "service:printer:ipp://printer.example.com/".
* Note that you cannot invent you own types but only take those that are
* registered at IANA. To create your own service type you must become a naming
* authority. Then you can use service types of the form
* "%srvtype%.%naming-authority%". Assuming that "kde" is the id of a
* IANA-registered naming authority, a valid Service URL would be
* "service:weatherp.kde://weather.example.com". You can find more information
* about Service URLs in the IETF RFCs 2608 and 3224.
* Additionally each service can have one or more attributes to carry
* additional information about the service. Attributes are a simple pair of
* strings, one for the attributes name and one for the value. They can be
* used, for example, to describe the type of a printer or the email address
* of an administrator.
*
* Service templates can be used to describe an abstract type, including the
* syntax of the concrete type and the attributes. The use of service
* templates is described in RFC 2609, you can find the existing service
* templates at http://www.iana.org/assignments/svrloc-templates.htm .
*
* Example:
* <pre>
* KServiceRegistry ksr;
* KInetAddress kia = KInetAddress->getLocalAddress();
* ksr.registerService(QString("service:remotedesktop.kde:vnc://%1:0").arg(kia->nodeName()),
* "(type=shared)");
* delete kia;
* </pre>
