[Interest] Signal Slot Ordering (or Not)
In a simple setup ( One sender object with a signal, One receiver with
a slot, argument is sequence number, both objects running in a
single thread ) some unexpected behaviour (at least for me) is noticed.
The connect between the mentioned signal / slot is done with
Qt::DirectConnection. According to the documentation, each slot is
called directly. ( The slot is invoked immediately when the signal is
emitted. The slot is executed in the signalling thread. )
In a for-loop, I'm sending 10 signals directly in one burst, like so :
for( int nCount = 0; nCount < number_of_signals; nCount++ )
{
std::cout << "[SignalSender::timerTimeOut] - "
<< QString( "Signal Sending. Timer : %1, Run : %2,
Sequence : %3" ) .arg( timer_interval_msecs )
.arg( run_number )
.arg( nCount ).toStdString() << std::endl;
emit signalSendSequence( timer_interval_msecs, run_number,
nCount ); QCoreApplication::processEvents();
}
I'm expecting the output would be in ascending order, but every once in
a while, the output is all thrown together. That is quite unexpected,
based on the documentation.
Is this a bug, or by design?
