/** Generic TCP-based server that listens for incoming connections on a port.
jens@2
    14
jens@0
    15
    For each incoming connection, it creates an instance of (a subclass of) the generic TCP
jens@0
    16
    client class TCPClient. The -connectionClass property lets you customize which subclass
jens@0
    17
    to use.
jens@2
    18
 
jens@2
    19
    TCPListener supports SSL, Bonjour advertisements for the service, and automatic port renumbering
jens@2
    20
    if there are conflicts. (The SSL related methods are inherited from TCPEndpoint.) 
jens@2
    21
 
jens@2
    22
    You will almost always need to implement the TCPListenerDelegate protocol in your own
jens@2
    23
    code, and set an instance as the listener's delegate property, in order to be informed
jens@2
    24
    of important events such as incoming connections. */
