I'm having trouble with the translation.
What does thread-safe or reentrant mean?
In short words if possible

Thanks

Still about this subject... i've been reading about QtConcurrentRun.
Would it be possible for me to launch 2 member functions of the initial Ubmsr class in 2 different thread using this?
Imagine that f1() is broadcasting every 1 second and f2() is listening in other port!? This way i would have access to the GUI objects.

Does this make sense or showld i forget it?

In theory you could do that. But my personal opinion is that it's not worth the trouble. If you want to have multiple threads, then use a classical threaded approach and use signals and slots to communicate with the main thread that will manipulate the GUI. The real question is if you should use threads at all.
