<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QxtRPCService class transmits Qt signals over a <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qiodevice.html">QIODevice</a></p>
<p>QxtRPCService is a tool that encapsulates Qt signals and transmits them over a <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qiodevice.html">QIODevice</a>. The signal is subsequently re-emitted on the receiving end of the connection.</p>
<p>QxtRPCService can act as a client or a server. When acting as a server, it uses a <a href="qxtabstractconnectionmanager.html">QxtAbstractConnectionManager</a> to accept connections. When acting as a client, the application should provide an already-connected <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qiodevice.html">QIODevice</a> to the <a href="qxtrpcservice.html#setDevice">setDevice</a>() function.</p>
<p>All data types used in attached signals and slots must be declared and registered with <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qmetatype.html">QMetaType</a> using Q_DECLARE_METATYPE and qRegisterMetaType. Additional requirements may be imposed by the QxtAbstractSignalSerializer subclass in use; the default (QxtDataStreamSignalSerializer) requires that they have stream operators registered with qRegisterMetaTypeStreamOperators.</p>
<p>Due to a restriction of Qt's signals and slots mechanism, the number of parameters that can be passed to <a href="qxtrpcservice.html#call">call</a>() and its related functions, as well as the number of parameters to any signal or slot attached to QxtRPCService, is limited to 8.</p>

<h3 class="fn"><a name="QxtRPCService"></a>QxtRPCService::QxtRPCService ( <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html">QObject</a> * <i>parent</i> = 0 )</h3>
<p>Creates a <a href="qxtrpcservice.html">QxtRPCService</a> object with the given <i>parent</i>.</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="QxtRPCService-2"></a>QxtRPCService::QxtRPCService ( <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qiodevice.html">QIODevice</a> * <i>device</i>, <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html">QObject</a> * <i>parent</i> = 0 )</h3>
<p>Creates a <a href="qxtrpcservice.html">QxtRPCService</a> object with the given <i>parent</i> and connects it to the specified I/O <i>device</i>.</p>
<p>The I/O device must already be opened for reading and writing.</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="dtor.QxtRPCService"></a>QxtRPCService::~QxtRPCService () <tt> [virtual]</tt></h3>
<p>Destroys the <a href="qxtrpcservice.html">QxtRPCService</a> object.</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="attachSignal"></a>bool QxtRPCService::attachSignal ( <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html">QObject</a> * <i>sender</i>, const char * <i>signal</i>, const <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qstring.html">QString</a> & <i>rpcFunction</i> = QString() )</h3>
<p>Attaches the given signal.</p>
<p>When the attached <i>signal</i> is emitted by <i>sender</i>, it will be transmitted to all connected servers, clients, or peers. If an optional <i>rpcFunction</i> is provided, it will be used in place of the name of the transmitted signal. Use the SIGNAL() macro to specify the signal, just as you would for <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html#connect">QObject::connect</a>().</p>
<p>Like <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html#connect">QObject::connect</a>(), attachSignal() returns <tt>false</tt> if the connection cannot be established.</p>
<h3 class="fn"><a name="attachSlot"></a>bool QxtRPCService::attachSlot ( const <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qstring.html">QString</a> & <i>rpcFunction</i>, <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html">QObject</a> * <i>recv</i>, const char * <i>slot</i>, <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qt.html#ConnectionType-enum">Qt::ConnectionType</a> <i>type</i> = Qt::AutoConnection )</h3>
<p>Attaches an RPC function to the given slot.</p>
<p>When a signal with the name given by <i>rpcFunction</i> is received from the network, the attached <i>slot</i> is executed. Use the SLOT() macro to specify the slot, just as you would for <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html#connect">QObject::connect</a>().</p>
<p>Like <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html#connect">QObject::connect</a>(), attachSlot() returns <tt>false</tt> if the connection cannot be established. Also like <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qobject.html#connect">QObject::connect</a>(), a signal may be used as a slot; invocation will cause the signal to be emitted.</p>
<p><b>Note:</b> When acting like a server, the first parameter of the slot must be <b>quint64 id</b>. The parameters of the incoming signal follow. For example, SIGNAL(mySignal(<a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qstring.html">QString</a>)) from the client connects to SLOT(mySlot(quint64, <a href="http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qstring.html">QString</a>)) on the server.</p>

<p>Sends the signal <i>fn</i> with the given parameter list to the server, or to all connected clients.</p>
<p>The receiver is not obligated to act upon the signal. If no clients are connected, and if not communicating with a server, this function does nothing.</p>
