/**
 * @class   vtkSMProxyConfigurationWriter
 * @brief   Base readers of a vtkSMProxy's vtkSMProperty's.
 *
 *
 * vtkSMProxyConfigurationWriter writes state for properties for a single
 * proxy. Internally the ParaView state machinery is employed.
 *
 * The notion of proxy configuration is similar to state but lighter
 * as the proxy its domains and and its server side objects are assumed to
 * already exist. Configuration also provides subseting mechanism so that
 * properties may be excluded if needed.
 *
 * Subsetting is achieved through a specialized iterator derived from
 * vtkSMPropertyIterator.
