* OPacket - A frame on the wire
*======================================================================================*/

+
+/** @brief A class representing a data frame on the wire.
+ *
+ * The whole family of the packet classes are used when capturing frames from a network.
+ * Most standard network protocols in use share a common architecture, which mostly is
+ * a packet header and then the packet payload. In layered architectures, each lower layer
+ * encapsulates data from its upper layer - that is it
+ * treats the data from its upper layer as payload and prepends an own header to the packet,
+ * which - again - is treated as the payload for the layer below. The figure below is an
+ * example for how such a data frame is composed out of packets, e.g. when sending a mail.
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * | User Data | == Mail Data
+ * | SMTP Header | User Data | == SMTP
+ * | TCP Header | SMTP Header | User Data | == TCP
+ * | IP Header | TCP Header | SMTP Header | User Data | == IP
+ * | MAC Header | IP Header | TCP Header | SMTP Header | User Data | == MAC
+ *
+ * </pre>
+ *
+ * The example is trimmed for simplicity, because the MAC (Medium Access Control) layer
+ * also contains a few more levels of encapsulation.
+ * Since the type of the payload is more or less independent from the encapsulating protocol,
+ * the header must be inspected before attempting to decode the payload. Hence, the
+ * encapsulation level varies and can't be deduced without actually looking into the packets.
+ *
+ * For actually working with captured frames, it's useful to identify the packets via names and
+ * insert them into a parent/child - relationship based on the encapsulation. This is why
+ * all packet classes derive from QObject. The amount of overhead caused by the QObject is
+ * not a problem in this case, because we're talking about a theoratical maximum of about
+ * 10 packets per captured frame. We need to stuff them into a searchable list anyway and the
+ * QObject also cares about destroying the sub-, (child-) packets.
+ *
+ * This enables us to perform a simple look for packets of a certain type:
+ * @code
+ * OPacketCapturer* pcap = new OPacketCapturer();
+ * pcap->open( "eth0" );
+ * OPacket* p = pcap->next();
+ * OIPPacket* ip = (OIPPacket*) p->child( "IP" ); // returns 0, if no such child exists
+ * odebug << "got ip packet from " << ip->fromIPAddress().toString() << " to " << ip->toIPAddress().toString() << oendl;
+ *
