+/** implicitly supports a local registry and a read-only
+ system registry for global information.
+ In the context of this service,
+ the functions <code>open</code>, <code>close</code>, and <code>destroy</code>
+ from XSimpleRegistry are not supported and throw an exception
+ if they are used.
+
+ Functions of XSimpleRegistry:
+ <dl>
+ <dt> <b>getURL</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> returns the name of the local registry.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>isValid</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> checks if the local registry is valid. If the interface is not `NULL`
+ the local registry should always be valid.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>isReadOnly</b> </dt>
+ <dd> checks if the local registry has write protection.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>mergeKey</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> merges all information from the specified registry in the local registry.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>getRootKey</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> returns a virtual rootkey of both registries.
+ </dd>
+ </dl>
+
+ Functions of XRegistryKey:
+ <dl>
+ <dt> <b>openKey</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> returns a virtual key which is specified in the local or the system
+ registry.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>deleteKey</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> deletes the key only if it is present in the local registry.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>setLongValue, setAsciiValue, setStringValue, setBinaryValue</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> sets the value at the specified key in the local registry.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>getLongValue, getAsciiValue, getStringValue, getBinaryValue</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> returns the value at the specified key in the local registry, or if
+ the value is not present in the local registry, it will return the value of the
+ system registry.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>openKeys</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> returns a sequence of all subkeys in both registries.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> <b>getKeyNames</b>
+ </dt>
+ <dd> returns a sequence with the names of all subkeys in both registries.
+ </dd>
+ <dt>
+ <b>Note: all write functions only work on the local registry.</b>
+ </dt>
+ </dl>
+
+ How to find the registries:
+ <dl>
+ <dt> search for the system registry:
+ </dt>
+ <dd> The system registry will always be searched in the same directory as the
+ executable. The name of the system registry is "applicat.rdb". If the system
+ registry was not found, then the environment variable STAR_REGISTRY will be checked.
+ If this variable was set, it must contain a full path to a valid system registry.
+ </dd>
+ <dt> Search for the user registry using the following rules:
+ </dt>
+ <dd>
+ <ol>
+ <li> 1. (for further use) search in sversion.ini (.sversionrc) for an entry
+ REGISTRY_VERSION_STRING (example: UserRegistry 5.0/505=test.rdb) in the section
+ [Registry]. If found, then take this value instead of "user.rdb" as "REGISTRY NAME".
+ </li>
+ <li> 2. Search in the config directory of the user for a file "REGISTRY NAME". If
+ found, return the full path and name of the file. If not found, retry this
+ step with a dot before "REGISTRY NAME".
+ </li>
+ <li> 3. If not found, a new user registry with name user.rdb will be created in the user
+ config directory.
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ </dd>
+ </dl>
