    Default Start a thread automatic at start

    I have an application with start and stop buttons for the thread.
    How can I make the thread start without pushing the start button?
    I want the application to startup at boot time.


    void Dialog:n_pushButton_clicked()
    {
    mThread->start();
    mThread->Stop = false;
    ui->running->setText("Startad");
    }

    Just call on_pushButton_clicked() from the mainwindow ctor after setupUi()
    When you know how to do it then you may do it wrong.
    When you don't know how to do it then it is not that you may do it wrong but you may not do it right.

    By calling mThread->start() somewhere else?
    Like after creating it?
