Except in this particular case where:
- The flag is set to false at the start of the thread
- Set to true for stopping by the controlling(parent) thread (writen,
never read)
- Checked by the thread as a quit condition (read, never written)
In that case, there is absolutely no possible race
Dear all,
Even if I know that it can be dangerous to terminate a thread, I need to do it
for my application.
The function that run into the thread is like a long linear sequence of code
that has not been designed in a signal/slot way. Moreover, in my thread, I need
an eventloop as I use in it

Sorry Mandeep, I didn't read your post first. Basically what I posted is
similar.
A mutex is a little bit overkill here, you could use an atomic variable if
you want to be sure, but just a bool flag will be enough as it is always
set atomically AFAIK

Are you really going to completely re-do the discussion you already had
on the qt-project.org forums?
