=head1 NAME

Net::TCP::Server - TCP sockets interface module for listeners and servers

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Net::Gen;		# optional
    use Net::Inet;		# optional
    use Net::TCP;		# optional
    use Net::TCP::Server;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The C<Net::TCP::Server> module provides services for TCP communications
over sockets.  It is layered atop the
L<C<Net::TCP>|Net::TCP>,
L<C<Net::Inet>|Net::Inet>,
and
L<C<Net::Gen>|Net::Gen>
modules, which are part of the same distribution.

=head2 Public Methods

The following methods are provided by the C<Net::TCP::Server> module
itself, rather than just being inherited from
L<C<Net::TCP>|Net::TCP>,
L<C<Net::Inet>|Net::Inet>,
or
L<C<Net::Gen>|Net::Gen>.

=item new

Usage:

    $obj = new Net::TCP::Server;
    $obj = new Net::TCP::Server $service;
    $obj = new Net::TCP::Server $service, \%parameters;
    $obj = new Net::TCP::Server $lcladdr, $service, \%parameters;
    $obj = 'Net::TCP::Server'->new();
    $obj = 'Net::TCP::Server'->new($service);
    $obj = 'Net::TCP::Server'->new($service, \%parameters);
    $obj = 'Net::TCP::Server'->new($lcladdr, $service, \%parameters);

Returns a newly-initialised object of the given class.  This is
much like the regular C<new> method of the other modules
in this distribution, except that it makes it easier
to specify just a service name or port number, and it automatically
does a setsockopt() call to set C<SO_REUSEADDR> to make the bind() more
likely to succeed.  The C<SO_REUSEADDR> is really done in a base class,
but it's enabled by defaulting the C<reuseaddr> object parameter to 1 in
this constructor.

The examples above show the indirect object syntax which many prefer,
as well as the guaranteed-to-be-safe static method call.  There
are occasional problems with the indirect object syntax, which
tend to be rather obscure when encountered.  See
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/1998-01/msg01674.html
for details.

Simple example for server setup:

    $lh = 'Net::TCP::Server'->new(7788) or die;
    while ($sh = $lh->accept) {
	defined($pid=fork) or die "fork: $!\n";
	if ($pid) {		# parent doesn't need client fh
	    $sh->stopio;
	    next;
	}
	# child doesn't need listener fh
	$lh->stopio;
	# do per-connection stuff here
	exit;
    }

Note that signal-handling for the child processes is not included in
this example.  See L<perlipc/"Internet TCP Clients and Servers"> for
related examples which manage subprocesses.  However, on many operating
systems, a simple C<$SIG{CHLD} = 'IGNORE';> will prevent the server
process from collecting `zombie' subprocesses.

=head2 Protected Methods

none.

=head2 Known Socket Options

There are no socket options specific to the C<Net::TCP::Server> module.

=head2 Known Object Parameters

There are no object parameters registered by the C<Net::TCP::Server>
module itself.

=head1 THREADING STATUS

This module has been tested with threaded perls, and should be as thread-safe
as perl itself.  (As of 5.005_03 and 5.005_57, that's not all that safe
just yet.)  It also works with interpreter-based threads ('ithreads') in
more recent perl releases.
