/**

*  Content Listing Engine.

*  With Content Listing Engine, client can create item list models,

*  add an observer to get notifications of changed items and

*  send update notifications to server.

*  Client can create an instance this class with ContentListingFactory.<br><br>

*  Usage:

*

*  @code

*

*  // Create a new instance with Content Listing Factory

*  MCLFContentListingEngine* engine =

*                    ContentListingFactory::NewContentListingEngineLC();

*

*  // Add changed item observer

*  engine->AddChangedItemObserverL( *myObserver );

*

*  // Send update notification when item is changed.

*  engine->UpdateItemsL();

*

*  // Remember to remove the observer, when it is deleted

*  engine->RemoveChangedItemObserver( *myObserver );

*

*  @endcode
