    \class TQSocketNotifier ntqsocketnotifier.h
    \brief The TQSocketNotifier class provides support for socket callbacks.

    \ingroup io

    This class makes it possible to write asynchronous socket-based
    code in TQt. Using synchronous socket operations blocks the
    program, which is clearly not acceptable for an event-driven GUI
    program.

    Once you have opened a non-blocking socket (whether for TCP, UDP,
    a UNIX-domain socket, or any other protocol family your operating
    system supports), you can create a socket notifier to monitor the
    socket. Then you connect the activated() signal to the slot you
    want to be called when a socket event occurs.

    Note for Windows users: the socket passed to TQSocketNotifier will
    become non-blocking, even if it was created as a blocking socket.

    There are three types of socket notifiers (read, write and
    exception); you must specify one of these in the constructor.

    The type specifies when the activated() signal is to be emitted:
    \list 1
    \i TQSocketNotifier::Read - There is data to be read (socket read event).
    \i TQSocketNotifier::Write - Data can be written (socket write event).
    \i TQSocketNofifier::Exception - An exception has occurred (socket
    exception event). We recommend against using this.
    \endlist

    For example, if you need to monitor both reads and writes for the
    same socket you must create two socket notifiers.

    For read notifiers it makes little sense to connect the
    activated() signal to more than one slot because the data can be
    read from the socket only once.

    Also observe that if you do not read all the available data when
    the read notifier fires, it fires again and again.

    For write notifiers, immediately disable the notifier after the
    activated() signal has been received and you have sent the data to
    be written on the socket. When you have more data to be written,
    enable it again to get a new activated() signal. The exception is
    if the socket data writing operation (send() or equivalent) fails
    with a "would block" error, which means that some buffer is full
    and you must wait before sending more data. In that case you do
    not need to disable and re-enable the write notifier; it will fire
    again as soon as the system allows more data to be sent.

    The behavior of a write notifier that is left in enabled state
    after having emitting the first activated() signal (and no "would
    block" error has occurred) is undefined. Depending on the
    operating system, it may fire on every pass of the event loop or
    not at all.

    If you need a time-out for your sockets you can use either \link
    TQObject::startTimer() timer events\endlink or the TQTimer class.

    Socket action is detected in the \link TQApplication::exec() main
    event loop\endlink of TQt. The X11 version of TQt has a single UNIX
    select() call that incorporates all socket notifiers and the X
    socket.

    Note that on XFree86 for OS/2, select() works only in the thread
    in which main() is running; you should therefore use that thread
    for GUI operations.

/*!
    Enables the notifier if \a enable is TRUE or disables it if \a
    enable is FALSE.

    The notifier is enabled by default.

    If the notifier is enabled, it emits the activated() signal
    whenever a socket event corresponding to its \link type()
    type\endlink occurs. If it is disabled, it ignores socket events
    (the same effect as not creating the socket notifier).

    Write notifiers should normally be disabled immediately after the
    activated() signal has been emitted; see discussion of write
    notifiers in the \link #details class description\endlink above.
