Hi,
1) I'd add an __init__ like this.
def __init__(self,parent=None):
QObject.__init__(self,parent)
2) I'd move the work method stuff to the init. It looks like you are
doing the setup there. init is the place to be for this.
3) QMetaObject.invokeMethod(photoWorker, "work", Qt.QueuedConnection)
looks very strange
use:
photoThread.started.connect(photoWorker.doWork)
instead. place before photoThread.start().
Apart from that, my threads are being destroyed as photoWorker and
photoThread objects run out of scope. How can I prevent python from
doing this? Making them instance objects is not an option since every
time my program reenters the method where they are declared it spawns
new threads.
Make a list and add the photoWorker instances to the list. Clean the
list up now and then.
Thanks,

Thank you, Sebastian. I followed the procedures described in the
document and it worked. But I have another question.
Take a look at the code bellow:
class PhotoWorker(QObject):
photoStatus = Signal(str, str)
@Slot()
def work(self):
self.db = sqlite_database.SQLiteDatabase("db1")
self.timer = QTimer()
self.timer.timeout.connect(self.__resendPhoto)
logger.info <http://logger.info>("photo worker started")
self.timer.start(10000)
@Slot()
def __resendPhoto(self):
data = self.db.selectPhoto()
if data != None:
self.filename = data[0]
self.tags = data[1]
logger.info <http://logger.info>("trying to resend photo " +
self.filename)
status = sendPhoto(self.tags, self.filename)
self.photoStatus.emit(self.filename, status)
And in a GUI class, I do the following:
photoWorker = http_connection.PhotoWorker(self)
photoWorker.photoStatus.connect(self.photoStatus)
photoThread = QThread()
photoWorker.moveToThread(photoThread)
photoThread.start()
QMetaObject.invokeMethod(photoWorker, "work", Qt.QueuedConnection)
I realized that when I create the photoWorker object, if I don't
set its parent to self, my thread dies. Is this because my
photoWorker doesn't have its own event loop? I am bit confused
here. How should I proceed?
Thank you.

Although it is in the documentation, QThread is not meant to
be used this way (subclassing). Have a look at this:
http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2010/06/17/youre-doing-it-wrong/ It
helped me a lot. Also a complete stripped down example would
greatly help in a case of a segfault.

Hi,
I have a subclass of QThread which uploads pictures to a
webserver. For each new picture created in the main thread,
the program spawns a new thread to handle the job. I've
override the __init__ method to be able to pass some
parameters to the thread object, as you can see bellow.
class PhotoConnection(QThread):
photoStatus = Signal(str, str)
def __init__(self, tags, filename, parent=None):
QThread.__init__(self, parent)
self.tags = tags
self.filename = filename
def run(self):
status = sendPhoto(self.tags, self.filename)
self.photoStatus.emit(self.filename, status)
In the GUI thread, the method responsible dor creating the
threads is the following:
def sendPhoto(self):
photoConnection = PhotoConnection(self.tags_to_string,
self.filename, self)
photoConnection.photoStatus.connect(self.photoStatus)
photoConnection.finished.connect(self.threadFinished)
photoConnection.start()
In the PhotoConnection, if I don't set the parent of my
Qthread object to self (for example, if I set to None) or if
I don't override the __init__ method and create another
method to pass the arguments, when the thread finishes the
execution I got a segfault.
Why is this happening? Can you help me?
Thanks,
