23 * The base class for all jobs.
24 * For all jobs created in an application, the code looks like

26 * \code
27 * KIO::Job* job = KIO::someoperation(some parameters);
28 * connect(job, &KJob::result, this, &MyClass::slotResult);
29 * \endcode
30 * (other connects, specific to the job)
31 *
32 * And slotResult is usually at least:
33 *
34 * \code
35 * void MyClass::slotResult(KJob *job)
36 * {
37 * if (job->error()) {
38 * job->uiDelegate()->showErrorMessage();
39 * }
40 * }
41 * \endcode
