There's nothing wrong with doing that, but it would be even better to submit a patch to the documentation. Also, I've seen this statement several times before, and it's wrong. The documentation could certainly be better, because it's not the best approach that's described there. But it's *not wrong*. I'll use that approach whenever it suits my needs, and the other approaches when that makes sense. The biggest problem with the documented approach is that new Qt coders are always surprised with the parent-child relationship around the thread. If a coder understands this, it's perfectly fine to use the documented approach. If you set out to correct the documentation, you should make it better, not go from one one-sided way of thinking to another. Bo Thorsen.
