<p>This class makes it possible to accept incoming TCP connections. You can specify the port or have QTcpServer pick one automatically. You can listen on a specific address or on all the machine's addresses.</p>
<p>Call <a href="qtcpserver.html#listen">listen</a>() to have the server listen for incoming connections. The <a href="qtcpserver.html#newConnection">newConnection</a>() signal is then emitted each time a client connects to the server.</p>
<p>Call <a href="qtcpserver.html#nextPendingConnection">nextPendingConnection</a>() to accept the pending connection as a connected <a href="qtcpsocket.html">QTcpSocket</a>. The function returns a pointer to a <a href="qtcpsocket.html">QTcpSocket</a> in <a href="qabstractsocket.html#SocketState-enum">QAbstractSocket.ConnectedState</a> that you can use for communicating with the client.</p>
<p>If an error occurs, <a href="qtcpserver.html#serverError">serverError</a>() returns the type of error, and <a href="qtcpserver.html#errorString">errorString</a>() can be called to get a human readable description of what happened.</p>
<p>When listening for connections, the address and port on which the server is listening are available as <a href="qtcpserver.html#serverAddress">serverAddress</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#serverPort">serverPort</a>().</p>
<p>Calling <a href="qtcpserver.html#close">close</a>() makes QTcpServer stop listening for incoming connections.</p>
<p>Although QTcpServer is mostly designed for use with an event loop, it's possible to use it without one. In that case, you must use <a href="qtcpserver.html#waitForNewConnection">waitForNewConnection</a>(), which blocks until either a connection is available or a timeout expires.</p>

<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/~QTcpServer" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="close" />QTcpServer.close (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Closes the server. The server will no longer listen for incoming connections.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#listen">listen</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/errorString" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="errorString" />QString QTcpServer.errorString (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns a human readable description of the last error that occurred.</p>

<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/hasPendingConnections" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="hasPendingConnections" />bool QTcpServer.hasPendingConnections (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns true if the server has a pending connection; otherwise returns false.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#nextPendingConnection">nextPendingConnection</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#setMaxPendingConnections">setMaxPendingConnections</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/incomingConnection" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="incomingConnection" />QTcpServer.incomingConnection (<i>self</i>, int)</h3><p>This virtual function is called by <a href="qtcpserver.html">QTcpServer</a> when a new connection is available. The <i>socketDescriptor</i> argument is the native socket descriptor for the accepted connection.</p>
<p>The base implementation creates a <a href="qtcpsocket.html">QTcpSocket</a>, sets the socket descriptor and then stores the <a href="qtcpsocket.html">QTcpSocket</a> in an internal list of pending connections. Finally <a href="qtcpserver.html#newConnection">newConnection</a>() is emitted.</p>
<p>Reimplement this function to alter the server's behavior when a connection is available.</p>
<p>If this server is using <a href="qnetworkproxy.html">QNetworkProxy</a> then the <i>socketDescriptor</i> may not be usable with native socket functions, and should only be used with <a href="qabstractsocket.html#setSocketDescriptor">QTcpSocket.setSocketDescriptor</a>().</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#newConnection">newConnection</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#nextPendingConnection">nextPendingConnection</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/isListening" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="isListening" />bool QTcpServer.isListening (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns true if the server is currently listening for incoming connections; otherwise returns false.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#listen">listen</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/listen" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="listen" />bool QTcpServer.listen (<i>self</i>, <a href="qhostaddress.html">QHostAddress</a> <i>address</i> = QHostAddress.Any, int <i>port</i> = 0)</h3><p>Tells the server to listen for incoming connections on address <i>address</i> and port <i>port</i>. If <i>port</i> is 0, a port is chosen automatically. If <i>address</i> is <a href="qhostaddress.html#SpecialAddress-enum">QHostAddress.Any</a>, the server will listen on all network interfaces.</p>
<p>Returns true on success; otherwise returns false.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#isListening">isListening</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/maxPendingConnections" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="maxPendingConnections" />int QTcpServer.maxPendingConnections (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the maximum number of pending accepted connections. The default is 30.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#setMaxPendingConnections">setMaxPendingConnections</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#hasPendingConnections">hasPendingConnections</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/newConnection" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="nextPendingConnection" /><a href="qtcpsocket.html">QTcpSocket</a> QTcpServer.nextPendingConnection (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the next pending connection as a connected <a href="qtcpsocket.html">QTcpSocket</a> object.</p>
<p>The socket is created as a child of the server, which means that it is automatically deleted when the <a href="qtcpserver.html">QTcpServer</a> object is destroyed. It is still a good idea to delete the object explicitly when you are done with it, to avoid wasting memory.</p>
<p>0 is returned if this function is called when there are no pending connections.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#hasPendingConnections">hasPendingConnections</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/proxy" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="proxy" /><a href="qnetworkproxy.html">QNetworkProxy</a> QTcpServer.proxy (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the network proxy for this socket. By default <a href="qnetworkproxy.html#ProxyType-enum">QNetworkProxy.DefaultProxy</a> is used.</p>
<p>This function was introduced in Qt 4.1.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#setProxy">setProxy</a>() and <a href="qnetworkproxy.html">QNetworkProxy</a>.</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/serverAddress" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="serverAddress" /><a href="qhostaddress.html">QHostAddress</a> QTcpServer.serverAddress (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the server's address if the server is listening for connections; otherwise returns <a href="qhostaddress.html#SpecialAddress-enum">QHostAddress.Null</a>.</p>

<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/serverPort" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="serverPort" />int QTcpServer.serverPort (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the server's port if the server is listening for connections; otherwise returns 0.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#serverAddress">serverAddress</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#listen">listen</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/setMaxPendingConnections" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="setMaxPendingConnections" />QTcpServer.setMaxPendingConnections (<i>self</i>, int)</h3><p>Sets the maximum number of pending accepted connections to <i>numConnections</i>. <a href="qtcpserver.html">QTcpServer</a> will accept no more than <i>numConnections</i> incoming connections before <a href="qtcpserver.html#nextPendingConnection">nextPendingConnection</a>() is called. By default, the limit is 30 pending connections.</p>
<p>Clients may still able to connect after the server has reached its maximum number of pending connections (i.e., <a href="qtcpsocket.html">QTcpSocket</a> can still emit the connected() signal). <a href="qtcpserver.html">QTcpServer</a> will stop accepting the new connections, but the operating system may still keep them in queue.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#maxPendingConnections">maxPendingConnections</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#hasPendingConnections">hasPendingConnections</a>().</p>

<h3 class="fn"><a name="setProxy" />QTcpServer.setProxy (<i>self</i>, <a href="qnetworkproxy.html">QNetworkProxy</a>)</h3><p>Sets the explicit network proxy for this socket to <i>networkProxy</i>.</p>
<p>To disable the use of a proxy for this socket, use the <a href="qnetworkproxy.html#ProxyType-enum">QNetworkProxy.NoProxy</a> proxy type:</p>
<pre> server->setProxy(QNetworkProxy.NoProxy);</pre>
<p>This function was introduced in Qt 4.1.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#proxy">proxy</a>() and <a href="qnetworkproxy.html">QNetworkProxy</a>.</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/setSocketDescriptor" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="setSocketDescriptor" />bool QTcpServer.setSocketDescriptor (<i>self</i>, int)</h3><p>Sets the socket descriptor this server should use when listening for incoming connections to <i>socketDescriptor</i>. Returns true if the socket is set successfully; otherwise returns false.</p>
<p>The socket is assumed to be in listening state.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#socketDescriptor">socketDescriptor</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#isListening">isListening</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/socketDescriptor" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="socketDescriptor" />int QTcpServer.socketDescriptor (<i>self</i>)</h3><p>Returns the native socket descriptor the server uses to listen for incoming instructions, or -1 if the server is not listening.</p>
<p>If the server is using <a href="qnetworkproxy.html">QNetworkProxy</a>, the returned descriptor may not be usable with native socket functions.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qtcpserver.html#setSocketDescriptor">setSocketDescriptor</a>() and <a href="qtcpserver.html#isListening">isListening</a>().</p>
<a name="//apple_ref/cpp/instm/QTcpServer/waitForNewConnection" />
<h3 class="fn"><a name="waitForNewConnection" />(bool, bool <i>timedOut</i>) QTcpServer.waitForNewConnection (<i>self</i>, int <i>msecs</i> = 0)</h3><p>Waits for at most <i>msec</i> milliseconds or until an incoming connection is available. Returns true if a connection is available; otherwise returns false. If the operation timed out and <i>timedOut</i> is not 0, *<i>timedOut</i> will be set to true.</p>
<p>This is a blocking function call. Its use is disadvised in a single-threaded GUI application, since the whole application will stop responding until the function returns. waitForNewConnection() is mostly useful when there is no event loop available.</p>
<p>The non-blocking alternative is to connect to the <a href="qtcpserver.html#newConnection">newConnection</a>() signal.</p>
<p>If msec is -1, this function will not time out.</p>
