Hello, i'm trying to display a QMessageBox from a non-GUI thread. For this i use signal&slots:
in a QMainWindow based object i defined the slot. In the sending object i defined the signal and in the c'tor i connect them. Then, from a background thread, i emit the signal. Connecting and emitting the signal is executed without error but the slot is never executed. Connect signal in c'tor: > connect(this,SIGNAL(showNewWarning(cstr)),parent,SLOT(showNewWarning(cstr)),Qt::QueuedConnection); Emit signal: > emit showNewWarning("Programme did not fit in ram."); I really think this should work. This is Qt 4.8 on Mac OSX. I have no custom event loop in the QApplication object. The background thread was not created by my application. It is an audio callback: This may be the reason for the failure, but then i need a workaround. :-/ static OSStatus audioDeviceIOProc ( AudioDeviceID /*inDevice*/, const AudioTimeStamp* /*inNow*/, const AudioBufferList* inInputData, const AudioTimeStamp* /*inInputTime*/, AudioBufferList* outOutputData, const AudioTimeStamp* inOutputTime, void* /*inClientData*/ ) { ... } Greetings from Germany, ...
