usage

Network class provides following signals/slots & functions

signal:

void clientGotInactive(QHostAddress address);

returns QHostAddress of client, who got inactive due to timeout/no response.

signal:

void newClientAdded(QHostAddress address);

return QHostAddress of client, who recently joined the network.

signal:

void clientListChanged();

signal is emitted if either a client joined or got inactive.

slot:

void removeClientExtern(QHostAddress address);

removes client from list due to an external reason (f.e. no TCP response) when the client reconnects, the signals "newClientAdded" and "clientListChanged" are emitted again.

func:

QList<QHostAddress> getClientList();

returns QList of all active clients. To catch all changes, call function after "clientListChanged()" is emitted.
