/**
 * @class OptionsCont
 * @brief A storage for options typed value containers)
 *
 * This container stores options (typed value containers) by their names.
 * In the case of command line tools, this container is the main interface
 *  between a user's definitions about what to do (command line options,
 *  configuration files) and the application.
 *
 * At the begin, the application should initialise the container. Because
 *  the OptionsCont is also responsible for printing the help screen, one
 *  should name and describe the application, first. This means that the
 *  first usage of this container should look similar to this:
 * @code
 * OptionsCont &oc = OptionsCont::getOptions();
 * // give some application descriptions
 * oc.setApplicationDescription(<ONE_LINE_DESCRIPTION>);
 * oc.setApplicationName(<APPLICATION_NAME>, "SUMO <APPLICATION_NAME> Version " + (string)VERSION_STRING);
 * @endcode
 * @see setApplicationDescription
 * @see setApplicationName
 *
 * Then, you may also add some example calls using addCallExample.
 * @see addCallExample
 *
 * In the next step, option subtopics are registered. This is needed
 *  for the help screen and for writing the templates/saving configurations.
 *  A subtopic is added using addOptionSubTopic(<SUBTOPIC_NAME>).
 * @see addOptionSubTopic
 *
 * After this, you may add options to the container. This is done using
 *  doRegister. This method requires a long name for the option and
 *  the value container. The value container must be an instance of
 *  one of the classes derived from "Option". Do not use Option itself!
 *  This is a base class which is meant to supply a default behaviour,
 *  but this default behaviour throws exceptions only!
 * @see Option
 * @see doRegister
 * @see addSynonyme
 *
 * Once stored inside this container, options will not be visible to the
 *  world and are deleted by the container. Only values and stati of the
 *  options may be returned. While accessing the options, the programmer
 *  must assure that he asks for the right value (only Option_Bool is able
 *  to return a boolean value, other option types will throw exceptions).
 *  Further, options added to the container must not be deleted outside
 *  this container (the container becomes the owner).
 *
 * For being printed in the help screen, a description together with the
 *  subtopic the option belongs to must be given to OptionsCont. This is
 *  done using addDescription(<OPTION_NAME>, <SUBTOPIC>, <DESCRIPTION>).
 * @see addDescription
