/** @brief Endpoint for I/O operations

    This class serves as the base class for all kinds of I/O devices. The
    interface supports synchronous and asynchronous I/O operations, peeking
    and seeking. I/O buffers and I/O streams within the cxxtools framework use
    IODevices as endpoints and therefore fully feaured standard C++ compliant
    IOStreams can be constructed at runtime.
    Examples of %IODevices are the SerialDevice, the endpoints of a Pipe
    or the FileDevice. A Selector can be used to wait on activity on an
    %IODevice, which will send the %Signal inputReady or outputReady of the
    %IODevice that is ready to perform I/O.
