  This abstract base class represents one end of a message connections
  between two clients. Each client has one object of a subclass of
  KMessageIO. Calling /e send() on one object will emit the signal
  /e received() on the other object, and vice versa.

  For each type of connection (TCP/IP socket, COM port, direct connection
  within the same class) a subclass of KMessageIO must be defined that
  implements the pure virtual methods /e send() and /e isConnected(),
  and sends the signals. (See /e KMessageSocket for an example implementation.)

  Two subclasses are already included: /e KMessageSocket (connection using
  TCP/IP sockets) and /e KMessageDirect (connection using method calls, both
  sides must be within the same process).
