Instead of starting in main(), QThreads begin executing in run(). You inherit run() to include your code. For example: \code class MyThread : public QThread { public: virtual void run(); }; void MyThread::run() { for( int count = 0; count < 20; count++ ) { sleep( 1 ); tqDebug( "Ping!" ); } } int main() { MyThread a; MyThread b; a.start(); b.start(); a.wait(); b.wait(); } \endcode This will start two threads, each of which writes Ping! 20 times to the screen and exits. The wait() calls at the end of main() are necessary because exiting main() ends the program, unceremoniously killing all other threads. Each MyThread stops executing when it reaches the end of MyThread::run(), just as an application does when it leaves main(). \sa \link threads.html Thread Support in Qt\endlink. */ /*! \enum QThread::Priority This enum type indicates how the operating system should schedule newly created threads. \value IdlePriority scheduled only when no other threads are running. \value LowestPriority scheduled less often than LowPriority. \value LowPriority scheduled less often than NormalPriority. \value NormalPriority the default priority of the operating system. \value HighPriority scheduled more often than NormalPriority. \value HighestPriority scheduled more often then HighPriority. \value TimeCriticalPriority scheduled as often as possible. \value InheritPriority use the same priority as the creating thread.
