| 40 | \brief An Introduction to Network Programming with Qt
|
|---|
| 41 |
|
|---|
| 42 | The QtNetwork module offers classes that allow you to write TCP/IP clients
|
|---|
| 43 | and servers. It offers classes such as QFtp that implement specific
|
|---|
| 44 | application-level protocols, lower-level classes such as QTcpSocket,
|
|---|
| 45 | QTcpServer and QUdpSocket that represent low level network concepts,
|
|---|
| 46 | and high level classes such as QNetworkRequest, QNetworkReply and
|
|---|
| 47 | QNetworkAccessManager to perform network operations using common protocols.
|
|---|
| 48 | It also offers classes such as QNetworkConfiguration,
|
|---|
| 49 | QNetworkConfigurationManager and QNetworkSession that implement bearer
|
|---|
| 50 | management.

|
|---|
| 61 |
|
|---|
| 62 | The Network Access API is a collection of classes for performing
|
|---|
| 63 | common network operations. The API provides an abstraction layer
|
|---|
| 64 | over the specific operations and protocols used (for example,
|
|---|
| 65 | getting and posting data over HTTP), and only exposes classes,
|
|---|
| 66 | functions, and signals for general or high level concepts.
