 * @class LocalParameter
 * @sbmlbrief{core} A parameter inside an SBML <em>reaction</em> definition.
 *
 * LocalParameter has been introduced in SBML Level&nbsp;3 to serve as the
 * object class for parameter definitions that are intended to be local to
 * a Reaction.  Objects of class LocalParameter never appear at the Model
 * level; they are always contained within ListOfLocalParameters lists
 * which are in turn contained within KineticLaw objects.
 *
 * Like its global Parameter counterpart, the LocalParameter object class
 * is used to define a symbol associated with a value; this symbol can then
 * be used in a model's mathematical formulas (and specifically, for
 * LocalParameter, reaction rate formulas).  Unlike Parameter, the
 * LocalParameter class does not have a "constant" attribute: local
 * parameters within reactions are @em always constant.
 * 
 * LocalParameter has one required attribute, "id", to give the
 * parameter a unique identifier by which other parts of an SBML model
 * definition can refer to it.  A parameter can also have an optional
 * "name" attribute of type @c string.  Identifiers and names must be used
 * according to the guidelines described in the SBML specifications.
 * 
 * The optional attribute "value" determines the value (of type @c double)
 * assigned to the parameter.  A missing value for "value" implies that
 * the value either is unknown, or to be obtained from an external source,
 * or determined by an initial assignment.  The unit of measurement
 * associated with the value of the parameter can be specified using the
 * optional attribute "units".  Here we only mention briefly some notable
 * points about the possible unit choices, but readers are urged to consult
 * the SBML specification documents for more information:
 * <ul>
 *
 * <li> In SBML Level&nbsp;3, there are no constraints on the units that
 * can be assigned to parameters in a model; there are also no units to
 * inherit from the enclosing Model object.
 *
 * <li> In SBML Level&nbsp;2, the value assigned to the parameter's "units"
 * attribute must be chosen from one of the following possibilities: one of
 * the base unit identifiers defined in SBML; one of the built-in unit
 * identifiers @c "substance", @c "time", @c "volume", @c "area" or @c
 * "length"; or the identifier of a new unit defined in the list of unit
 * definitions in the enclosing Model structure.  There are no constraints
 * on the units that can be chosen from these sets.  There are no default
 * units for local parameters.
 * </ul>
 *
 * As with all other major SBML components, LocalParameter is derived from
 * SBase, and the methods defined on SBase are available on LocalParameter.
 *
 * In SBML Level&nbsp;3 Version&nbsp;2, the scope of the LocalParameter 
 * was expanded slightly to officially encompass the entire Reaction
 * instead of just the KineticLaw in which it appears.  This has no
 * effect on models using only SBML Level&nbsp;3 Core constructs,
 * but has the potential to allow SBML Level&nbsp;3 Packages to
 * include elements in a Reaction that could reference a
 * LocalParameter from that Reaction's KineticLaw.  It also means that
 * no LocalParameter may have the same @c "id" as a referenced Species
 * in any SimpleSpeciesReference in that Reaction. 
 * 
 * @warning <span class="warning">LibSBML derives LocalParameter from
 * Parameter; however, this does not precisely match the object hierarchy
 * defined by SBML Level&nbsp;3, where LocalParameter is derived directly
 * from SBase and not Parameter.  We believe this arrangement makes it easier
 * for libSBML users to program applications that work with both SBML
 * Level&nbsp;2 and SBML Level&nbsp;3, but programmers should also keep in
 * mind this difference exists.  A side-effect of libSBML's scheme is that
 * certain methods on LocalParameter that are inherited from Parameter do not
 * actually have relevance to LocalParameter objects.  An example of this is
 * the methods pertaining to Parameter's attribute "constant" (i.e.,
 * isSetConstant(), setConstant(), and getConstant()).</span>

 * @class doc_localparameter_units
 *
 * @par
 * LocalParameters in SBML have an attribute ("units") for declaring the
 * units of measurement intended for the parameter's value.  <b>No
 * defaults are defined</b> by SBML in the absence of a definition for
 * "units".  This method returns a UnitDefinition object based on the
 * units declared for this LocalParameter using its "units" attribute, or
 * it returns @c NULL if no units have been declared.
 *
 * Note that unit declarations for LocalParameter objects are specified
 * in terms of the @em identifier of a unit (e.g., using setUnits()), but
 * @em this method returns a UnitDefinition object, not a unit
 * identifier.  It does this by constructing an appropriate
 * UnitDefinition.  For SBML Level&nbsp;2 models, it will do this even
 * when the value of the "units" attribute is one of the predefined SBML
 * units @c "substance", @c "volume", @c "area", @c "length" or @c
 * "time".  Callers may find this useful in conjunction with the helper
 * methods provided by the UnitDefinition class for comparing different
 * UnitDefinition objects.
