You must also provide a function that connects the signal to an outside object slot. This is how we have implemented signals in the QMenuData class, which is not a QObject. +.PP +In general, we recommend inheriting QObject instead. QObject provides much more functionality. +.PP +You can set a single QVariant parameter for the signal with setValue(). +.PP +Note that QObject is a \fIprivate\fR base class of QSignal, i.e. you cannot call any QObject member functions from a QSignal object. +.PP +Example: +.PP +.nf +.br + #include +.br +.br + class MyClass +.br + { +.br + public: +.br + MyClass(); +.br + ~MyClass(); +.br +.br + void doSomething(); +.br +.br + void connect( QObject *receiver, const char *member ); +.br +.br + private: +.br + QSignal *sig; +.br + }; +.br +.br + MyClass::MyClass() +.br + { +.br + sig = new QSignal; +.br + } +.br +.br + MyClass::~MyClass() +.br + { +.br + delete sig; +.br + } +.br +.br + void MyClass::doSomething() +.br + { +.br + // ... does something +.br + sig->activate(); // emits the signal +.br + } +.br +.br + void MyClass::connect( QObject *receiver, const char *member ) +.br + { +.br + sig->connect( receiver, member ); +.br + } +.br +.fi +.PP +See also Input/Output and Networking and Miscellaneous Classes. +.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION +.SH "QSignal::QSignal ( QObject * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 )" +Constructs a signal object called \fIname\fR, with the parent object \fIparent\fR. These arguments are passed directly to QObject. +.SH "QSignal::~QSignal ()" +Destroys the signal. All connections are removed, as is the case with all QObjects. +.SH "void QSignal::activate ()" +Emits the signal. If the platform supports QVariant and a parameter has been set with setValue(), this value is passed in the signal. +.SH "void QSignal::block ( bool b )" +\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code. +.PP +Blocks the signal if \fIb\fR is TRUE, or unblocks the signal if \fIb\fR is FALSE. +.PP +An activated signal disappears into hyperspace if it is blocked. +.PP +See also isBlocked(), activate(), and QObject::blockSignals(). +.SH "bool QSignal::connect ( const QObject * receiver, const char * member )" +Connects the signal to \fImember\fR in object \fIreceiver\fR. +.PP +See also disconnect() and QObject::connect(). +.SH "bool QSignal::disconnect ( const QObject * receiver, const char * member = 0 )" +Disonnects the signal from \fImember\fR in object \fIreceiver\fR. +.PP +See also connect() and QObject::disconnect(). +.SH "bool QSignal::isBlocked () const" +\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code. +.PP +Returns TRUE if the signal is blocked, or FALSE if it is not blocked. +.PP +The signal is not blocked by default. +.PP +See also block() and QObject::signalsBlocked(). +.SH "int QSignal::parameter () const" +\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code. +.SH "void QSignal::setParameter ( int value )" +\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code. +.SH "void QSignal::setValue ( const QVariant & value )" +Sets the signal's parameter to \fIvalue\fR +.SH "QVariant QSignal::value () const" +Returns the signal's parameter + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR http://doc.trolltech.com/qsignal.html +.BR http://www.trolltech.com/faq/tech.html +.SH COPYRIGHT +Copyright 1992-2007 Trolltech ASA, http://www.trolltech.com.
