////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/// \class sf::Socket
/// \ingroup network
///
/// This class mainly defines internal stuff to be used by
/// derived classes.
///
/// The only public features that it defines, and which
/// is therefore common to all the socket classes, is the
/// blocking state. All sockets can be set as blocking or
/// non-blocking.
///
/// In blocking mode, socket functions will hang until
/// the operation completes, which means that the entire
/// program (well, in fact the current thread if you use
/// multiple ones) will be stuck waiting for your socket
/// operation to complete.
///
/// In non-blocking mode, all the socket functions will
/// return immediately. If the socket is not ready to complete
/// the requested operation, the function simply returns
/// the proper status code (Socket::NotReady).
///
/// The default mode, which is blocking, is the one that is
/// generally used, in combination with threads or selectors.
/// The non-blocking mode is rather used in real-time
/// applications that run an endless loop that can poll
/// the socket often enough, and cannot afford blocking
/// this loop.
