/**
	LLSD provides a flexible data system similar to the data facilities of
	dynamic languages like Perl and Python.  It is created to support exchange
	of structured data between loosly coupled systems.  (Here, "loosly coupled"
	means not compiled together into the same module.)
	
	Data in such exchanges must be highly tollerant of changes on either side
	such as:
			- recompilation
			- implementation in a different langauge
			- addition of extra parameters
			- execution of older versions (with fewer parameters)

	To this aim, the C++ API of LLSD strives to be very easy to use, and to
	default to "the right thing" whereever possible.  It is extremely tollerant
	of errors and unexpected situations.
	
	The fundimental class is LLSD.  LLSD is a value holding object.  It holds
	one value that is either undefined, one of the scalar types, or a map or an
	array.  LLSD objects have value semantics (copying them copies the value,
	though it can be considered efficient, due to shareing.), and mutable.

	Undefined is the singular value given to LLSD objects that are not
	initialized with any data.  It is also used as the return value for
	operations that return an LLSD,
	
	The sclar data types are:
		- Boolean	- true or false
		- Integer	- a 32 bit signed integer
		- Real		- a 64 IEEE 754 floating point value
		- UUID		- a 128 unique value
		- String	- a sequence of zero or more Unicode chracters
		- Date		- an absolute point in time, UTC,
						with resolution to the second
		- URI		- a String that is a URI
		- Binary	- a sequence of zero or more octets (unsigned bytes)
	
	A map is a dictionary mapping String keys to LLSD values.  The keys are
	unique within a map, and have only one value (though that value could be
	an LLSD array).
	
	An array is a sequence of zero or more LLSD values.

		@name Scalar Accessors
		@brief Fetch a scalar value, converting if needed and possible
		
		Conversion among the basic types, Boolean, Integer, Real and String, is
		fully defined.  Each type can be converted to another with a reasonable
		interpretation.  These conversions can be used as a convenience even
		when you know the data is in one format, but you want it in another.  Of
		course, many of these conversions lose information.

		Note: These conversions are not the same as Perl's.  In particular, when
		converting a String to a Boolean, only the empty string converts to
		false.  Converting the String "0" to Boolean results in true.

		Conversion to and from UUID, Date, and URI is only defined to and from
		String.  Conversion is defined to be information preserving for valid
		values of those types.  These conversions can be used when one needs to
		convert data to or from another system that cannot handle these types
		natively, but can handle strings.

		Conversion to and from Binary isn't defined.

		Conversion of the Undefined value to any scalar type results in a
		reasonable null or zero value for the type.
