 * All these macros can be used to generate automatically the code

 * for subclasses of AttributeValue, AttributeAccessor, and, AttributeChecker,

 * which can be used to give attribute powers to a normal class. i.e.,

 * the user class can then effectively be made an attribute.

 *

 * There are two kinds of helper macros:

 *  1) The simple macros.

 *  2) The more complex macros.

 *

 * The simple macros are implemented in terms of the complex

 * macros and should generally be prefered over the complex macros:

 *    - \ref ATTRIBUTE_HELPER_HEADER_1,

 *    - \ref ATTRIBUTE_HELPER_HEADER_2, and,

 *    - \ref ATTRIBUTE_HELPER_CPP,
