    \brief The QGeoAreaMonitorSource class enables the detection of proximity
    changes for a specified set of coordinates.
 
    A QGeoAreaMonitorSource emits signals when the current position is in
    range, or has moved out of range, of a specified area.
    Each area is specified by a \l QGeoAreaMonitorInfo object.
    For example:
 
    \snippet cpp/cppqml.cpp BigBen
 
    \c QGeoAreaMonitorSource follows a singleton pattern. Each instance of
    the class with the same \l sourceName() shares the same area monitoring backend.
    If a new \l QGeoAreaMonitorInfo object is added via \l startMonitoring()
    or \l requestUpdate() it can be retrieved by another instance of this class
    (provided that they are sourced from the same area monitor provider plug-in).
    The same singleton pattern applies to the \l QGeoPositionInfoSource instance
    used by this class. The following code snippet emphasizes the behavior:
 
    \code
        QGeoAreaMonitorSource *s1 = QGeoAreaMonitorSource::createSource("blah", this);
        QGeoAreaMonitorSource *s2 = QGeoAreaMonitorSource::createSource("blah", this);
        QVERIFY(s1->positionInfoSource() == s2->positionInfoSource);
    \endcode

    the signal was emitted, \a monitor is automatically removed from the list of
    \l activeMonitors(). If \a monitor is invalid or has an expiry date that has
    been passed, this function returns \c false.

    was emitted for the first time. Until this point in time any other signal may be emitted
    zero or more times depending on the area context.
 
    It is not possible to simultanously request updates for more than one signal of the same monitor object.
    The last call to this function determines the signal upon which the updates cease to continue.
    At this stage only the \l areaEntered() and \l areaExited() signals can be used to
    terminate the monitoring process.
 
    Requesting persistent monitoring on a QGeoAreaMonitorSource instance fails if the area monitoring
    backend doesn't support \l QGeoAreaMonitorSource::PersistentAreaMonitorFeature.
 
    If \a monitor was already registered via \l startMonitoring() it is converted to a single
    shot behavior.
