QObject::killTimers(): timers cannot be stopped from another thread

[ShaChris23]

I have this very simple code:

#include <QApplication>
#include <QMessageBox>
int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
  QApplication app( argc, argv );
 
  QMessageBox::information(NULL, "Completed", "All files have been copied.");
 
  return app.exec();
}

#include <QApplication>
#include <QMessageBox>
int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
  QApplication app( argc, argv );

  QMessageBox::information(NULL, "Completed", "All files have been copied.");

  return app.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I develop on Windows using VS2008, and I configured it as a Console application.

The message box pops up fine, but when I close the Console window using the "X" button on the top right, this message gets printed on the console:

QObject::killTimers(): timers cannot be stopped from another thread

I'm quite puzzled by this since all I did was popping up a MessageBox and there was no timer.

Does anyone have any inputs?

In this particular case you should probably not call app.exec().
