service Layer
Description provides read-only access to a configuration data layer. A layer contains the configuration setting changes to be performed on a default settings tree to obtain the values of those settings for a given entity and component. See also Schema Service providing access to schema data for a configuration component. See also UpdatableLayer Service providing write access to a configuration data layer. Since version OpenOffice.org 1.1.1

Exported Interfaces
XLayer | Description provides read access to the contents of the configuration layer.
XCompositeLayer | [ OPTIONAL ] Description provides read access to sublayers accessible through an additional criterion (for instance the locale they contain data for).
::com::sun::star::util::XTimeStamped | [ OPTIONAL ] Description provides a way to detect changes to the layer. Timestamps should be considered as opaque markers and can only safely be compared for equality and only to timestamps generated by the same implementation. When the content of the Layer changes, the timestamp is guaranteed to change to a different value. The timestamp format depends on the implementation. If the timestamp is a representation of the time of the last change, the recommended format is "YYYYMMDDhhmmssZ".
