Hi I am experimenting with QThreads The basic idea is to have a thread performing some task and to have a button on the UI that can stop this operation
So I have a class that will perform the operation called GeneratorThread that has a start slot In the main ui class I create an instance of the class - m_generatorThread = new GeneratorThread(this); Then I call moveToThread and make the connections- m_generatorThread->moveToThread(m_thread) connect(m_thread,&QThread::started,m_generatorThread,& GeneratorThread::start); connect(m_generatorThread,&GeneratorThread::finished,m_thread,&QThread::quit); connect(m_generatorThread,&GeneratorThread::finished,m_generatorThread,&GeneratorThread::deleteLater); connect(m_thread,&QThread::finished,m_generatorThread,&GeneratorThread::deleteLater); And finally I start the thread m_thread->start() The generatorThread simply writes a debug message every second and I see this happening. The problem is that my ui does not respond to any input - so my stop button will not work I am obviously doing something wrong and would appreciate any help Thanks _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
