Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class QFutureWatcher< T >

\reentrant

Since
4.4

\inmodule QtCore

The QFutureWatcher class allows monitoring a QFuture using signals and slots.

QFutureWatcher provides information and notifications about a QFuture. Use the setFuture() function to start watching a particular QFuture. The future() function returns the future set with setFuture().

For convenience, several of QFuture's functions are also available in QFutureWatcher: progressValue(), progressMinimum(), progressMaximum(), progressText(), isStarted(), isFinished(), isRunning(), isCanceled(), isSuspending(), isSuspended(), waitForFinished(), result(), and resultAt(). The cancel(), setSuspended(), suspend(), resume(), and toggleSuspended() functions are slots in QFutureWatcher.

Status changes are reported via the started(), finished(), canceled(), suspending(), suspended(), resumed(), resultReadyAt(), and resultsReadyAt() signals. Progress information is provided from the progressRangeChanged(), void progressValueChanged(), and progressTextChanged() signals.

Throttling control is provided by the setPendingResultsLimit() function. When the number of pending resultReadyAt() or resultsReadyAt() signals exceeds the limit, the computation represented by the future will be throttled automatically. The computation will resume once the number of pending signals drops below the limit.

Example: Starting a computation and getting a slot callback when it's finished:

// Instantiate the objects and connect to the finished signal.
QFutureWatcher<int> watcher;
connect(&watcher, &QFutureWatcher<int>::finished, &myObject, &MyClass::handleFinished);
// Start the computation.
QFuture<int> future = QtConcurrent::run(...);
watcher.setFuture(future);
QFutureWatcher< int > watcher
QFuture< int > future

Be aware that not all running asynchronous computations can be canceled or suspended. For example, the future returned by QtConcurrent::run() cannot be canceled; but the future returned by QtConcurrent::mappedReduced() can.

QFutureWatcher<void> is specialized to not contain any of the result fetching functions. Any QFuture<T> can be watched by a QFutureWatcher<void> as well. This is useful if only status or progress information is needed; not the actual result data.

◆ QFutureWatcher()

template<typename T >
template< typename T > QFutureWatcher< T >::QFutureWatcher ( QObject * parent = nullptr)

Constructs a new QFutureWatcher with the given parent.

Until a future is set with setFuture(), the functions isStarted(), isCanceled(), and isFinished() return true.

◆ setFuture()

template<typename T >
Q_INLINE_TEMPLATE void QFutureWatcher< T >::setFuture ( const QFuture< T > & future)

Starts watching the given future.

If future has already started, the watcher will initially emit signals that bring their listeners up to date about the future's state. The following signals will, if applicable, be emitted in the given order: started(), progressRangeChanged(), progressValueChanged(), progressTextChanged(), resultsReadyAt(), resultReadyAt(), suspending(), suspended(), canceled(), and finished(). Of these, resultsReadyAt() and resultReadyAt() may be emitted several times to cover all available results. progressValueChanged() and progressTextChanged() will only be emitted once for the latest available progress value and text.

To avoid a race condition, it is important to call this function after doing the connections.
