'Why all the handlers were executed in the same thread?
I will appreciate if anyone answers this question.
Thanks.

Warning: The handle returned by this function is used for internal
purposes and should not be used in any application code. On Windows, the
returned value is a pseudo-handle for the current thread that cannot be
used for numerical comparison.
Running this same code gives me a entirly different result. More of what
I expected, but I think this goes to show that the warning should be
taken. Mainly signals and slots are handled in the main thread. While
the first three messages are in their own thread.
'a' is starting in 140649595894096
'b' is starting in 140649587501392
'c' is starting in 140649579108688
'a' is handling in 140649768179440
'b' is handling in 140649768179440
The idea is you can do processing in Qthread, then emit signals to
update the GUI. The run function of QThread is what the new thread is
running, and you update the GUI thread by emiting signals. So I would
expect the 'starting' message each to be from a different thread and all
the 'handling' messages to be from the main GUI thread.
By chaning currentThreadId() to currentThread() you should be able to
see this. My output is below:
'a' is starting in <__main__.MyThread object at 0x7a31e8>
'c' is starting in <__main__.MyThread object at 0x7a32f8>
'b' is starting in <__main__.MyThread object at 0x7a3270>
'a' is handling in <PyQt4.QtCore.QThread object at 0x7a3380>
'b' is handling in <PyQt4.QtCore.QThread object at 0x7a3380>
