     * \endcode
     *
     * @returns the newly created part.
     *
     * createPart() automatically emits a signal KLibFactory::objectCreated to tell
     * the library about its newly created object.  This is very
     * important for reference counting, and allows unloading the
     * library automatically once all its objects have been destroyed.
