+
+
+The QSignal class can be used to send signals for classes
+that don't inherit <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a>.
+<p>
+
+<p> If you want to send signals from a class that does not inherit
+QObject, you can create an internal QSignal object to emit the
+signal. You must also provide a function that connects the signal
+to an outside object slot. This is how we have implemented
+signals in the <a href="qmenudata.html">QMenuData</a> class, which is not a QObject.
+<p> In general, we recommend inheriting QObject instead. QObject
+provides much more functionality.
+<p> You can set a single <a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> parameter for the signal with
+<a href="#setValue">setValue</a>().
+<p> Note that QObject is a <em>private</em> base class of QSignal, i.e. you
+cannot call any QObject member functions from a QSignal object.
+<p> Example:
+<pre>
+ #include &lt;<a href="qsignal-h.html">qsignal.h</a>&gt;
+
+ class MyClass
+ {
+ public:
+ MyClass();
+ ~MyClass();
+
+ void doSomething();
+
+ void connect( <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> *receiver, const char *member );
+
+ private:
+ QSignal *sig;
+ };
+
+ MyClass::MyClass()
+ {
+ sig = new QSignal;
+ }
+
+ MyClass::~MyClass()
+ {
+ delete sig;
+ }
+
+ void MyClass::doSomething()
+ {
+ // ... does something
+ sig-&gt;<a href="#activate">activate</a>(); // emits the signal
+ }
+
+ void MyClass::connect( <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> *receiver, const char *member )
+ {
+ sig-&gt;<a href="#connect">connect</a>( receiver, member );
+ }
+ </pre>
+

+<h3 class=fn><a name="QSignal"></a>QSignal::QSignal ( <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )
+</h3>
+Constructs a signal object called <em>name</em>, with the parent object
+<em>parent</em>. These arguments are passed directly to <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a>.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="~QSignal"></a>QSignal::~QSignal ()
+</h3>
+Destroys the signal. All connections are removed, as is the case
+with all QObjects.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="activate"></a>QSignal::activate ()
+</h3>
+
+<p> Emits the signal. If the platform supports <a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> and a
+parameter has been set with <a href="#setValue">setValue</a>(), this value is passed in
+the signal.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="block"></a>QSignal::block ( bool&nbsp;b )
+</h3>
+
+<b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
+<p> Blocks the signal if <em>b</em> is TRUE, or unblocks the signal if <em>b</em> is FALSE.
+<p> An activated signal disappears into hyperspace if it is blocked.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#isBlocked">isBlocked</a>(), <a href="#activate">activate</a>(), and <a href="qobject.html#blockSignals">QObject::blockSignals</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="connect"></a>QSignal::connect ( const&nbsp;<a href="qobject.html">QObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;receiver, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;member )
+</h3>
+Connects the signal to <em>member</em> in object <em>receiver</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#disconnect">disconnect</a>() and <a href="qobject.html#connect">QObject::connect</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="disconnect"></a>QSignal::disconnect ( const&nbsp;<a href="qobject.html">QObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;receiver, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;member = 0 )
+</h3>
+Disonnects the signal from <em>member</em> in object <em>receiver</em>.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#connect">connect</a>() and <a href="qobject.html#disconnect">QObject::disconnect</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isBlocked"></a>QSignal::isBlocked () const
+</h3>
+
+<b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
+<p> Returns TRUE if the signal is blocked, or FALSE if it is not blocked.
+<p> The signal is not blocked by default.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#block">block</a>() and <a href="qobject.html#signalsBlocked">QObject::signalsBlocked</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>int <a name="parameter"></a>QSignal::parameter () const
+</h3> <b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setParameter"></a>QSignal::setParameter ( int&nbsp;value )
+</h3> <b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setValue"></a>QSignal::setValue ( const&nbsp;<a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;value )
+</h3>
+Sets the signal's parameter to <em>value</em>
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> <a name="value"></a>QSignal::value () const
+</h3>
+Returns the signal's parameter
