//! \class ByteStream bytestream.h
//! \brief Base class for "bytestreams"
//! 
//! This class provides a basic framework for a "bytestream", here defined
//! as a bi-directional, asynchronous pipe of data.  It can be used to create
//! several different kinds of bytestream-applications, such as a console or
//! TCP connection, or something more abstract like a security layer or tunnel,
//! all with the same interface.  The provided functions make creating such
//! classes simpler.  ByteStream is a pure-virtual class, so you do not use it
//! on its own, but instead through a subclass such as \a BSocket.
//!
//! The signals connectionClosed(), delayedCloseFinished(), readyRead(),
//! bytesWritten(), and error() serve the exact same function as those from
//! <A HREF="http://doc.trolltech.com/3.1/qsocket.html">QSocket</A>.
//!
//! The simplest way to create a ByteStream is to reimplement isOpen(), close(),
//! and tryWrite().  Call appendRead() whenever you want to make data available for
//! reading.  ByteStream will take care of the buffers with regards to the caller,
//! and will call tryWrite() when the write buffer gains data.  It will be your
//! job to call tryWrite() whenever it is acceptable to write more data to
//! the underlying system.
//!
//! If you need more advanced control, reimplement read(), write(), bytesAvailable(),
//! and/or bytesToWrite() as necessary.
//!
//! Use appendRead(), appendWrite(), takeRead(), and takeWrite() to modify the
//! buffers.  If you have more advanced requirements, the buffers can be accessed
//! directly with readBuf() and writeBuf().
//!
//! Also available are the static convenience functions ByteStream::appendArray()
//! and ByteStream::takeArray(), which make dealing with byte queues very easy.
