/**
 * \class ctkCmdLineModuleFrontendQtGui
 * \brief A Qt based implementation of the module front end.
 * \ingroup CommandLineModulesFrontendQtGui_API
 *
 * This class is able to generate a Qt widgets based GUI from the XML description of
 * a given module. It uses a customizable XML stylesheet to transform the raw XML description
 * into a .ui file which is fed into a QUiLoader to generate the GUI at runtime.
 *
 * Sub-classes have several possibilities to customize the generated GUI:
 * <ul>
 * <li>Override uiLoader() and provide your own QUiLoader or ctkCmdLineModuleQtUiLoader sub-class
 *     which knows how to instantiate widget types (see the table below for widget class names).</li>
 * <li>Bind variables to the ctkCmdLineModuleXslTranform object returned by xslTransform() to
 *     customize widget class names and property names. This may require you to provide a Qt Designer
 *     plug-in for your custom widget classes if you do not implement your own widget instantiation
 *     code in a custom QUiLoader.</li>
 * <li>Advanced: Override fragments of the XML stylesheet using ctkCmdLineModuleXslTranform::setXslExtraTransformation()</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * All widget classes are assumed to expose a readable and writable QObject property for storing and
 * retrieving current front-end values via the DisplayRole role.
 *
 * The following table lists the available XSL parameters (setable via ctkCmdLineModuleXslTransform::bindVariable()),
 * and their default values for all parameter types and created container widgets:
 *
 * \htmlonly
 * <style type="text/css">
 * table.xslparam { color:#333333; border-collapse:collapse; }
 * table.xslparam td { border: 1px solid #666666; padding: 5px; }
 * table.xslparam th { border: 1px solid #666666; padding: 5px; background-color: #dedede; font-weight: bold; }
 * </style>

 * <tr><td>[unknown type]</td><td>unsupportedWidget</td><td>QLabel</td><td>n/a</td><td>n/a</td></tr>
 * </table>
 * \endhtmlonly
 *
 * In addition, for image and file, input and output, it is normally necessary to define a set property within
 * the generated .ui file to contain various configuration flags to pass to the widget. For example, ctkPathLineEdit
 * has a "filters" property that can be used to configure the dialog behaviour when the browse button is pressed.
 * The following XSL parameters are available to create a set property and are also setable via
 * ctkCmdLineModuleXslTransform::bindVariable(). If the empty string is bound to the Set Property Name,
 * the set property will be omitted.
