signal/slot在底层会使用三种方式传递消息。参见QObject::connect()方法:
bool QObject::connect ( const QObject * sender, const char * signal, const QObject * receiver, const char * method, Qt::ConnectionType type = Qt::AutoCompatConnection )
最后一个参数是就是传递消息的方式了,有四个取值:
Qt::DirectConnection
When emitted, the signal is immediately delivered to the slot.
假设当前有4个slot连接到QPushButton::clicked(bool),当按钮被按下时,QT就把这4个slot按连接的时间顺序调用一遍。显然这种方式不能跨线程(传递消息)。
Qt::QueuedConnection
When emitted, the signal is queued until the event loop is able to deliver it to the slot.
假设当前有4个slot连接到QPushButton::clicked(bool),当按钮被按下时,QT就把这个signal包装成一个 QEvent,放到消息队列里。QApplication::exec()或者线程的
QThread::exec()会从消息队列里取消息,然后调用 signal关联的几个slot。这种方式既可以在线程内传递消息,也可以跨线程传递消息。
Qt::BlockingQueuedConnection
Same as QueuedConnection, exc
