/** This service specifies a radio button which is data-aware and thus can be bound to a
    database field, and additionally supports binding to arbitrary external values.

    <p>The <type scope="com::sun::star::form::binding">XValueBinding</type> instance which
    can be associated with a <type>BindableDatabaseRadioButton</type> must support exchanging
    boolean values. The following mapping between external values and control states apply:
    <ul><li><TRUE/> will be mapped to the button being checked, and vice versa</li>
        <li><FALSE/> will be mapped to it being unchecked, and vice versa</li>
        <li><NULL/> will be mapped to it being in indetermined state</li>
    </ul></p>

    <p>If the value binding associated with a <type>BindableDatabaseRadioButton</type>
    supports exchanging string values, <em>and</em> the <member scope="com::sun::star::form::component">RadioButton::RefValue</member>
    is <em>not</em> empty, then the radio button will exchange it's value as string:
    <ul><li>A string equal to the reference value will be mapped to the button being checked, and vice versa</li>
        <li>A string not equal to the reference value will be mapped to the button being unchecked, and vice versa</li>
        <li><NULL/> will be mapped to it being in indetermined state</li>
    </ul></p>
