+    \example network/threadedfortuneserver
+    \title Threaded Fortune Server Example
+
+    The Threaded Fortune Server example shows how to create a server for a
+    simple network service that uses threads to handle requests from different
+    clients. It is intended to be run alongside the Fortune Client example.
+
+    \image threadedfortuneserver-example.png
+
+    The implementation of this example is similar to that of the
+    \l{network/fortuneserver}{Fortune Server} example, but here we will
+    implement a subclass of QTcpServer that starts each connection in a
+    different thread.
+
+    For this we need two classes: FortuneServer, a QTcpServer subclass, and
+    FortuneThread, which inherits QThread.
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortuneserver.h 0
+
+    FortuneServer inherits QTcpServer and reimplements
+    QTcpServer::incomingConnection(). We also use it for storing the list of
+    random fortunes. 
+    
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortuneserver.cpp 0
+
+    We use FortuneServer's constructor to simply generate the list of
+    fortunes.
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortuneserver.cpp 1
+
+    Our implementation of QTcpServer::incomingConnection() creates a
+    FortuneThread object, passing the incoming socket descriptor and a random
+    fortune to FortuneThread's constructor. By connecting FortuneThread's
+    finished() signal to QObject::deleteLater(), we ensure that the thread
+    gets deleted once it has finished. We can then call QThread::start(),
+    which starts the thread.
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortunethread.h 0
+
+    Moving on to the FortuneThread class, this is a QThread subclass whose job
+    is to write the fortune to the connected socket. The class reimplements
+    QThread::run(), and it has a signal for reporting errors.
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortunethread.cpp 0
+    
+    FortuneThread's constructor simply stores the socket descriptor and
+    fortune text, so that they are available for run() later on.
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortunethread.cpp 1
+
+    The first thing our run() function does is to create a QTcpSocket object
+    on the stack. What's worth noticing is that we are creating this object
+    inside the thread, which automatically associates the socket to the
+    thread's event loop. This ensures that Qt will not try to deliver events
+    to our socket from the main thread while we are accessing it from
+    FortuneThread::run().
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortunethread.cpp 2
+
+    The socket is initialized by calling QTcpSocket::setSocketDescriptor(),
+    passing our socket descriptor as an argument. We expect this to succeed,
+    but just to be sure, (although unlikely, the system may run out of
+    resources,) we catch the return value and report any error.
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortunethread.cpp 3
+
+    As with the \l{network/fortuneserver}{Fortune Server} example, we encode
+    the fortune into a QByteArray using QDataStream.
+
+    \snippet examples/network/threadedfortuneserver/fortunethread.cpp 4
+
+    But unlike the previous example, we finish off by calling
+    QTcpSocket::waitForDisconnected(), which blocks the calling thread until
+    the socket has disconnected. Because we are running in a separate thread,
+    the GUI will remain responsive.
