For a unique_ptr, a deleteLater would take ownership and destroy the moved unique_ptr on a different event loop round, for a shared_ptr, a deleteLater would copy it and destroy the copy on a different event loop round. The difference is that you can't touch a unique_ptr after a deleteLater call, and if you happen to hold on to a copy of the shared_ptr, the deletion might not occur at all. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
