There is a big difference between :
connect(ptr, SIGNAL(triggered()), ptr2, SLOT(mySlot()));
and
connect(ptr, &Ptr::triggered, ptr2, [ptr2]() { ptr2->mySlot(); });
and
connect(ptr, &Ptr::triggered, [ptr2]() { ptr2->mySlot(); });
The first 2 forms behave identically and the slot (and lambda) is
executed in the thread
of the ptr2 object.
While the 3rd form executes the lambda and the slot in the thread of ptr object.
So if you want to solve overloads by using lambdas you should use the 2nd form.
Alternatively, you can use QOverload and qOverload to resolve the
overload without having to pay for a lambda.
