Detailed Description

Represents a field in the Addressbook.

This class represents a field in the Addressbook database. It provides methods for accessing meta-information about the field (such as label() or category()) as well as getting or setting the field's value in an instance of Addressee (value(), setValue()).

Furthermore, some static methods are provided for getting a list of all fields (allFields(), defaultFields()), for creating new fields (createCustomField()) and for saving or loading fields to/from a config file (saveFields(), restoreFields()).
