  /// Wrapper class for the unicap_format_t struct \ingroup UNICAP_G
  /** The UnicapFormat class wraps the unicap_format_t struct and provides accessibility to
      all of its members by setter and getter functions. Additionally it uses a Smart-Pointer
      to allow cheep (shallow) copies by using the assign operator \n
      <b>Note: When using the UnicapFormats assign-operator or copy constructor, the object
      is copied in a shallow way! </b> \n
      A UnicapFormat provides the following data elements:
      - ID [string]
      - Size [available as Rect (unicap-flavor) and Size (icl-flavor)]
      - minimum size [as above]
      - maximum size [as above]
      - horizontal size stepping [int]
      - vertical size stepping [int]
      - a list of all possible sizes [vector<Rects or Sizes>]
      - bits per pixel [int]
      - a 4-chars format description (fourcc) [string]
      - flags [uint]
      - allowed buffer-types (??: 1:system and user, 0:only user) [int]
      - system buffer count [int]
      - size of a single image data buffer in bytes [int]
      - current buffer type [UnicapFormat::buffertype]
      - access to the underlying unicap_format_t (const and not const)
      - access to the underlying unicap_handle_t (const and not const)
      
      Furthermore, the following high-level utility functions are provided:
      - checkSize ( checks whether a size is supported by this format or not )
      - toString ( creates a string explanation of this format )
