[Qt-interest] QLocalSocket is not from Abstract?

[Jason H]

I was looking at adding a local socket to a tcp server that I have. Simple enough:
server -> connector (for handling new connection signals) -> handler (takes a QAbstractSocket)
This design works well because I can use the connector for http and https. So I thought simple, I'll just add a tweak for QLocalSocket. Well no joy because QLocalSocket does not inherit from QAbstractSocket, even though they have the same newConnection() signal and many other features. Does anyone know why this is?
