//+ Name DwProtocolClient -- Base class for all protocol clients
//+ Description
//. {\tt DwProtocolClient} is the base class for other classes that implement
//. specific protocols, such as SMTP, POP, and NNTP.  {\tt DwProtocolClient}
//. serves two purposes.  First, It combines operations common to all its
//. derived classes, such as opening a TCP connection to the server.  Second,
//. it provides a platform-independent interface to the network services
//. required by its subclasses.
//.
//. There are two separate implementations of {\tt DwProtocolClient}: one for
//. Berkeley sockets under UNIX, and one for Winsock under Win32.  The
//. interface is the same for both implementations, thus providing platform
//. independence.
//.
//. There are two platform-specific details that you should be aware of.
//. First, if you are writing a UNIX program, you should be sure to handle
//. the SIGPIPE signal.  This signal is raised when a program tries to write
//. to a TCP connection that was shutdown by the remote host.  The default
//. action for this signal is to terminate the program.  To prevent this
//. from happening in your program, you should either catch the signal or
//. tell the operating system to ignore it.  Second, if you are writing a
//. Win32 application for Windows NT or Windows95, you should be aware of
//. the fact that the constructor calls the Winsock function
//. {\tt WSAStartup()} to initialize the Winsock DLL.  (The destructor
//. calls {\tt WSACleanup()}.)  Because it is possible for {\tt WSAStartup()}
//. to fail, it is also possible that the constructor may fail.  To verify
//. that the constructor has succeeded, call the member function
//. {\tt LastError()} and check that it returns zero.
//.
//. To open a connection to a server, call {\tt Open()} with the server name
//. and TCP port number as arguments.  {\tt Open()} is declared virtual;
//. derived classes may override this member function.  {\tt Open()} may fail,
//. so you should check the return value to verify that it succeeded.  To close
//. the connection, call {\tt Close()}.  To check if a connection is open,
//. call {\tt IsOpen()}.  {\tt IsOpen()} returns a value that indicates whether
//. or not a call to {\tt Open()} was successful; it will not detect failure
//. in the network or a close operation by the remote host.
//.
//. {\tt DwProtocolClient} sets a timeout on receive operations on the TCP
//. connection.  The default value of the timeout period is 90 seconds.  To
//. change the default value, call {\tt SetReceiveTimeout()} and pass the
//. new value as an argument.
//.
//. Whenever {\tt DwProtocolClient} cannot complete an operation, it is because
//. an error has occurred.  Most member functions indicate that an error has
//. occurred via their return values.  For most member functions, a return
//. value of -1 indicates an error.  To get the specific error that has
//. occurred, call {\tt LastError()}, which returns either the system error
//. code or a MIME++ defined error code.  To get a text string that describes
//. the error, call {\tt LastErrorStr()}.
//.
//. Some errors are also considered "failures."  A failure occurs when an
//. operation cannot be completed because of conditions external to the
//. program.  For example, a failure occurs when the network is down or
//. when an application's user enters bad input.  Errors that occur because
//. of programmer error are not considered failures.  If an error occurs,
//. you should call {\tt LastError()} to determine the error, but you should
//. also call {\tt LastFailure()} to determine if a failure occurred.  In
//. interactive applications, failures should always be reported to the
//. application's user.  To get a text string that describes a failure,
//. call {\tt LastFailureStr()}.
//.
//. It is possible to translate the error and failure message strings to a
//. language other than English.  To do this, you may override the virtual
//. function {\tt HandleError()}.
