how to use QHttp inside QThread in Qt3
Hi,
can anyone have any experience with Qhttp and QThread in Qt 3.5.
I am tring to put Qhttp connection inside QThread, I would like to close the whole Http action into QThread run fucntion, however Qhttp works asynchronously so I have to wait inside run fucntion until http finish its work and this is the problem :/
I created Qhttp object inside my thread, connected its signals to my thread, and in my run fucntion after starting the http action I am trying to wait for its finish ( flag is changed in the slots function)
void MyThread::run()
{
m_pHttp->setHost(...
m_pHttp->get(...
while(m_bFlag)
qApp->processEvents();
processHttpResults();
}
any ideas?
it seems to work, but the whole application behaves strangly when the network connection is lost

Re: how to use QHttp inside QThread in Qt3
QHttp needs a running event loop, which in Qt3 is present only in the GUI thread. Even if you create QHttp in a different thread, GUI thread still will be doing all the work and your application might crash randomly.

thanks,
so there is no way in Qt3 to put the whole http action in worker thread ?

Unfortunately in Qt3 it isn't possible, but it shouldn't be a big problem, since QHttp is asynchronous.
