Is there a way to supply to Qt a piece of code that I would like to be invoked when it's not busy? In Xt there's a concept known as the work procedure: you can attach any number of your own callbacks to the event loop, and when the library realises it's not busy, it'll make a call on one of them to do whatever background work you have in mind. Of course it's up to you to make sure your work procedures return rapidly enough not to disturb the user, and there's no guarantee they'll be called in the first place. I want a similar thing in Qt. Is there one? Chris |

How did that extra 's' get there? Chris |

A QTimer with a 0 interval (and resstarting itsself) will be run whenever there aren't any eventss left to processssss. -- Guillaume. http://www.telegraph-road.org |
