the serial port class is this one: http://www.google.it/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCwQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fgitorious.org%2Finbiza-labs%2Fqserialport&ei=8OhhT_vNGY6KhQeg6tieCA&usg=AFQjCNF7vwKcu_dJz8y-QE6ziYhoPe4uNw&sig2=adTbs9FuJPYZhrNXtnfALg
it expect a EV_RXCHAR event on receiving something on the serial port so it reimplements the QWidget event function: bool WinSerialPortEngine::event(QEvent *e) { // qDebug()<<"event "<<e<<" "<<e->type(); bool ret = false; if (e->type() == QEvent::WinEventAct) { if (EV_ERR & m_currentMask & m_setMask) { m_parent->canErrorNotification(); ret = true; } if (EV_RXCHAR & m_currentMask & m_setMask) { m_parent->canReadNotification(); ret = true; } //FIXME: This is why it does not work? if (EV_TXEMPTY & m_currentMask & m_setMask) { m_parent->canWriteNotification(); ret = true; } } else { ret = QWinEventNotifier::event(e); } ::WaitCommEvent(m_descriptor, &m_currentMask, &m_ov); return ret; } the problem is that while receiving events like the QEvent::NonClientAreaMouseButtonPres on the gui thread it stop receivng EV_RXCHAR event on the serial port class Il 15 marzo 2012 12:53, Samuel Gaist <samuel.ga...@edeltech.ch> ha scritto: > > On 15 mars 2012, at 12:37, Riccardo Roasio wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> i have a program with : >> >> - a main thread >> - a serial manager thread using Qserialport >> >> i noticed that if i move the main gui the EV_RXCHAR event is not fired >> or cached... >> >> what's wrong? >> >> thanks, >> Riccardo >> _______________________________________________ >> Interest mailing list >> Interest@qt-project.org >> http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest > > Hi, > > With so few information, we won't be really be able to help you. > But here is a few questions: > - How is your serial manager thread implemented ?
