Thanks for noting that. It seems a little odd, though. I could of sworn I tried passing a reference: void my_signal (const POD &data) and it failed at run time when I tried to pass the reference through a queued connection. Of course, pointers and references are not identical, but, under the hood, you would think that if a queued connection could handle one, it could handle the other. Is it in fact the case that queued connections can handle pointers but not references (to non-qmetatypes), or am I just misremembering what I did? > If it really must be POD by value, then use Samuel's approach. Well, in my case it certainly doesn't have to be by value, but by value or by reference stylistically reflects the by-value semantics of the POD. > Tony. Thanks. K.
