Use wakeOne() to wake one randomly selected event or wakeAll() to wake them all. For example, say we have three tasks that should be performed every time the user presses a key; each task could be split into a thread, each of which would have a run() body like this: \code QWaitCondition key_pressed; for (;;) { key_pressed.wait(); // This is a QWaitCondition global variable // Key was pressed, do something interesting do_something(); } \endcode A fourth thread would read key presses and wake the other three threads up every time it receives one, like this: \code QWaitCondition key_pressed; for (;;) { getchar(); // Causes any thread in key_pressed.wait() to return from // that method and continue processing key_pressed.wakeAll(); } \endcode Note that the order the three threads are woken up in is undefined, and that if some or all of the threads are still in do_something() when the key is pressed, they won't be woken up (since they're not waiting on the condition variable) and so the task will not be performed for that key press. This can be avoided by, for example, doing something like this: \code QMutex mymutex; QWaitCondition key_pressed; int mycount=0; // Worker thread code for (;;) { key_pressed.wait(); // This is a QWaitCondition global variable mymutex.lock(); mycount++; mymutex.unlock(); do_something(); mymutex.lock(); mycount--; mymutex.unlock(); } // Key reading thread code for (;;) { getchar(); mymutex.lock(); // Sleep until there are no busy worker threads while( mycount > 0 ) { mymutex.unlock(); sleep( 1 ); mymutex.lock(); } mymutex.unlock(); key_pressed.wakeAll(); } \endcode The mutexes are necessary because the results of two threads attempting to change the value of the same variable simultaneously are unpredictable. */ /*!
