Hi, As Andrey pointed out, there is not a single way. But if you want to use a QThread for running QObjects with its event loop, the most simple way is not to subclass, and moveToThread.
This is well explained here: http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2010/06/17/youre-doing-it-wrong/ http://mayaposch.wordpress.com/2011/11/01/how-to-really-truly-use-qthreads-the-full-explanation/ Cheers, Etienne 2014/1/13 Chaser <chaser.and...@gmail.com> > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA256 > > > Hi I have been reading about QtThread and there seems to be a lot > > of discussion about how to correctly use this class. i.e. should > > developers derive from QtThread or provide an QObject and move this > > object to a thread.
