    Default How to use QThread to run a task and update GUI?

    I would like to create an application that will fetch images from the camera(in a separate thread) continuously and update the GUI controls. How to achieve this?

    I would start by reading the documentation of Qt's Multimedia framework and seeing if there is something already built you can use for your purpose instead of reinventing the wheel.

    Long time a go i make a simple html editor
    https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1131236/
    and this tool use a special QThread each image a new Thread to get 10 or 80 remote image from document...
    but now

    XHTML Wysiwyg Qeditor 9-10 years old.. the old version have a incombatible QHttp class in 5.9 ... QT(CEO) dont like make class compatible in back version.. from qt4 to qt5

    https://www.opendesktop.org/p/1131236/

    QT(CEO) is a strange man... in his mind:
    Why should he ask the people what use and what is desired?
    this man like only 1/2 success..
    I wanted a qt license ... but I'm disappointed

    MC donald ask people evry day .. what is desired?

    QHttp started life in Qt3, has been deprecated since version 4.4 of Qt hit the streets in 2008 with QNetworkAccessManager, and marked obsolete since 4.8. I think retiring it after nearly ten years of warnings in perfectly reasonable.
