## Detailed Description

Please use the more powerful KExtendedSocket class.

You can use a KServerSocket to listen on a port for incoming connections. When a connection arrived in the port, a KSocket is created and the signal accepted is raised. Make sure you always connect to this signal. If you don't the ServerSocket will create new KSocket's and no one will delete them!

If socket() is -1 or less the socket was not created properly.

KServerSocket ( unsigned short int _port, bool _bind = true ) | ### KServerSocket

Constructor.

Parameters:

_port | the port number to monitor for incoming connections.
_bind | if false you need to call bindAndListen yourself. This gives you the opportunity to set options on the socket.

KServerSocket ( const char *_path, bool _bind = true) | ### KServerSocket

Creates a UNIX domain server socket.

Parameters:

_path | path used for the socket.
_bind | if false you need to call bindAndListen yourself. This gives you the opportunity to set options on the socket.

~KServerSocket () | ### ~KServerSocket

[virtual]

Destructor. Closes the socket if it was not already closed.

bool bindAndListen () | ### bindAndListen

Binds the socket and start listening. This should only be called once when the constructor was called with _bind false. On error the socket will be closed.

Returns: true on success. false on error.

int socket () | ### socket

[const]

Returns the file descriptor associated with the socket.

Returns: the file descriptor, -1 when an error occured during construction or bindAndListen

unsigned short int port () | ### port

Returns the port number which is being monitored.

Returns: the port number

unsigned long ipv4_addr () | ### ipv4_addr

The address. This is dumb. Don't use it Refer to KExtendedSocket::localAddress(int)

void slotAccept ( int ) | ### slotAccept

[virtual slot]

Called when someone connected to our port.

void accepted ( KSocket*s ) | ### accepted

[signal]

A connection has been accepted. It is your task to delete the KSocket if it is no longer needed.

WARNING: this signal is always emitted, even if you don't connect anything to it. That would mean memory loss, because the KSockets created go to oblivion.

Parameters:

s | the socket that accepted

bool init ( unsigned short int ) | ### init

bool init ( const char *_path ) | ### init
