    \brief The QDBusUnixFileDescriptor class holds one Unix file descriptor.

    The QDBusUnixFileDescriptor class is used to hold one Unix file
    descriptor for use with the QtDBus module. This allows applications to
    send and receive Unix file descriptors over the D-Bus connection, mapping
    automatically to the D-Bus type 'h'.

    Objects of type QDBusUnixFileDescriptors can be used also as parameters
    in signals and slots that get exported to D-Bus by registering with
    QDBusConnection::registerObject.

    QDBusUnixFileDescriptor does not take ownership of the file descriptor.
    Instead, it will use the Unix system call \c dup(2) to make a copy of the
    file descriptor. This file descriptor belongs to the
