/**
* RPC dispatcher implementing the specified RPC interface

* \param RPC_INTERFACE class providing the RPC interface description
* \param SERVER class to invoke for the server-side RPC functions
*
* This class is the base class of each server-side RPC implementation. It
* contains the logic for dispatching incoming RPC requests and calls the
* server functions according to the RPC declarations in 'RPC_INTERFACE'.
*
* If using the default argument for 'SERVER', the 'RPC_INTERFACE' is expected
* to contain the abstract interface for all RPC functions. So virtual methods
* must be declared in 'RPC_INTERFACE'. In contrast, by explicitly specifying
* the 'SERVER' argument, the server-side dispatching performs direct
* calls to the respective methods of the 'SERVER' class and thereby
* omits virtual method calls.
