   \class KMessageServer kmessageserver.h <KGame/KMessageServer>
 
   @short A server for message sending and broadcasting, using TCP/IP connections.
 
   An object of this class listens for incoming connections via TCP/IP sockets and
   creates KMessageSocket objects for every established connection. It receives
   messages from the "clients", analyzes them and processes an appropriate
   reaction.
 
   You can also use other KMessageIO objects with KMessageServer, not only
   TCP/IP socket based ones. Use addClient to connect via an object of any
   KMessageIO subclass. (For clients within the same process, you can e.g. use
   KMessageDirect.) This object already has to be connected.
 
   The messages are always packages of an arbitrary length. The format of the messages
   is given below. All the data is stored and received with QDataStream, to be
   platform independent.
 
   Setting up a KMessageServer can be done like this:
 
   \code
     KMessageServer *server = new KMessageServer ();
     server->initNetwork (TCP/IP-Portnumber);
   \endcode
 
   Usually that is everything you will do. There are a lot of public methods to
   administrate the object (maximum number of clients, finding clients, removing
   clients, setting the admin client, ...), but this functionality can also
   be done by messages from the clients. So you can administrate the object completely
   on remote.
 
   If you want to extend the Server for your own needs (e.g. additional message types),
   you can either create a subclass and overwrite the method processOneMessage.
   (But don't forget to call the method of the superclass!) Or you can connect to
   the signal messageReceived, and analyze the messages there.
 
   Every client has a unique ID, so that messages can be sent to another dedicated
   client or a list of clients.
 
   One of the clients (the admin) has a special administration right. Some of the
   administration messages can only be used with him. The admin can give the admin
   status to another client. You can send a message to the admin by using clientID 0.
   This is always interpreted as the admin client,  of its real clientID.
 
   Here is a list of the messages the KMessageServer understands:
   &lt;&lt; means, the value is inserted into the QByteArray using QDataStream. The
   messageIDs (REQ_BROADCAST, ...) are of type quint32.
 
   - QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_BROADCAST ) << raw_data
 
     When the server receives this message, it sends the following message to
     ALL connected clients (a broadcast), where the raw_data is left unchanged:
        QByteArray << static_cast &lt;quint32>( MSG_BROADCAST ) << clientID << raw_data
        quint32 clientID; // the ID of the client that sent the broadcast request
 
   - QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_FORWARD ) << client_list << raw_data
     QValueList &lt;quint32> client_list; // list of receivers
 
     When the server receives this message, it sends the following message to
     the clients in client_list:
         QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( MSG_FORWARD ) << senderID << client_list << raw_data
         quint32 senderID;  // the sender of the forward request
         QValueList &lt;quint32> client_list; // a copy of the receiver list
 
     Note: Every client receives the message as many times as he is in the client_list.
     Note: Since the client_list is sent to all the clients, every client can see who else
           got the message. If you want to prevent this, send a single REQ_FORWARD
           message for every receiver.
 
   - QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_CLIENT_ID )
 
     When the server receives this message, it sends the following message to
     the asking client:
         QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( ANS_CLIENT_ID ) << clientID
         quint32 clientID;  // The ID of the client who asked for it
 
     Note: This answer is also automatically sent to a new connected client, so that he
           can store his ID. The ID of a client doesn't change during his lifetime, and is
           unique for this KMessageServer.
 
   - QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_ADMIN_ID )
 
     When the server receives this message, it sends the following message to
     the asking client:
         QByteArray << ANS_ADMIN_ID << adminID
         quint32 adminID;  // The ID of the admin
 
     Note: This answer is also automatically sent to a new connected client, so that he
           can see if he is the admin or not. It will also be sent to all connected clients
           when a new admin is set (see REQ_ADMIN_CHANGE).
 
   - QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_ADMIN_CHANGE ) << new_admin
     quint32 new_admin;  // the ID of the new admin, or 0 for no admin
 
     When the server receives this message, it sets the admin to the new ID. If no client
     with that ID exists, nothing happens. With new_admin == 0 no client is a admin.
     ONLY THE ADMIN ITSELF CAN USE THIS MESSAGE!
 
     Note: The server sends a ANS_ADMIN_ID message to every connected client.
 
   - QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_REMOVE_CLIENT ) << client_list
     QValueList &lt;quint32> client_list; // The list of clients to be removed
 
     When the server receives this message, it removes the clients with the ids stored in
     client_list, disconnecting the connection to them.
     ONLY THE ADMIN CAN USE THIS MESSAGE!
 
     Note: If one of the clients is the admin himself, he will also be deleted.
           Another client (if any left) will become the new admin.
 
   - QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_MAX_NUM_CLIENTS ) << maximum_clients
     qint32 maximum_clients; // The maximum of clients connected, or infinite if -1
 
     When the server receives this message, it limits the number of clients to the number given,
     or sets it unlimited for maximum_clients == -1.
     ONLY THE ADMIN CAN USE THIS MESSAGE!
 
     Note: If there are already more clients, they are not affected. It only prevents new Clients
           to be added. To assure this limit, remove clients afterwards (REQ_REMOVE_CLIENT)
 
   - QByteArray  << static_cast&lt;quint32>( REQ_CLIENT_LIST )
 
     When the server receives this message, it answers by sending a list of IDs of all the clients
     that are connected at the moment. So it sends the following message to the asking client:
         QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( ANS_CLIENT_LIST ) << clientList
         QValueList &lt;quint32> clientList;  // The IDs of the connected clients
 
     Note: This message is also sent to every new connected client, so that he knows the other
           clients.
 
   There are two more messages that are sent from the server to the every client automatically
   when a new client connects or a connection to a client is lost:
 
         QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( EVNT_CLIENT_CONNECTED ) << clientID;
         quint32 clientID;   // the ID of the new connected client
 
         QByteArray << static_cast&lt;quint32>( EVNT_CLIENT_DISCONNECTED ) << clientID;
         quint32 clientID;   // the ID of the client that lost the connection
         quint8 broken;      // 1 if the network connection was closed, 0 if it was disconnected
                              // on purpose
