KLocalSocketServer KLocalSocketServer allows one to create a listening local socket and accept incoming connections

On some platforms, local sockets are a kind of streaming socket that can be used to transmit and receive data just like Internet (TCP) streaming sockets. The difference is that they remain local to the host running them and cannot be accessed externally. They are also very fast and (in theory) consume less resources than standard TCP sockets.

KLocalSocketServer allows you to create the listening (i.e., passive) end of this local socket and accept incoming connections from users of KLocalSocket. It supports the same kind of socket types that KLocalSocket does (see KLocalSocket.LocalSocketType).
