normally use these classes by naming a specific socket typedef
(e.g. senf::TCPv4ClientSocketHandle).

However, to aid writing flexible and generic code, the socket
library provides the senf::ClientSocketHandle and
senf::ServerSocketHandle class templates. These templates

/** \brief Basic file handle wrapper
- senf::FileHandle provides a simple wrapper for arbitrary file handles. It exposes only a
- minimal interface which does \e not include reading or writing (since some filehandles are
- not readable or writable or only using special function calls like sendto).
-
- The FileHandle class provides handle/body handling and uses automatic reference
- counting. The senf::FileHandle istance is very lightweight and should be used like a
- built-in type.
-
- \attention You should mostly pass around senf::FileHandle objects by \e value und not by
- reference.
-
- The FileHandle abstraction is only applicable to real filehandles. It is \e not possible to
- wrap any provider or consumer into a filehandle like interface using this wrapper. The
- wrapper will forward some calls directly to the underlying API without relying on virtual
- methods. This allows important members to be inlined.
-
- It is not possible to use the senf::FileHandle class directly since it does not have any
- public constructor. The FileHandle class is however the baseclass of all handle classes of
- the socket library.
-
- \section filehandle_new Writing senf::FileHandle derived classes
-
- To build a new FileHandle type you need to derive from senf::FileHandle. The derived class
- will have to call the protocted FileHandle constructor passing a new senf::FileBody
- instance. This instance may either be a simple senf::FileBody or a class derived from
- senf::FileBody.
-
- \todo Add public default constructor to allow declaration of (empty) senf::FileHandle
