/*!
 * \brief A base class for an attribute value factory
 *
 * Every attribute is represented with a factory that is basically an attribute value generator.
 * The sole purpose of an attribute is to return an actual value when requested. A simplest attribute
 * can always return the same value that it stores internally, but more complex ones can
 * perform a considerable amount of work to return a value, and the returned values may differ
 * each time requested.
 *
 * A word about thread safety. An attribute should be prepared to be requested a value from
 * multiple threads concurrently.
