ThreadID does not change

[Bernie]

Hi,
at the moment I try to program a TcpServer and i would like to thread the socket.
So my code looks like this:




void Server::incomingConnection(int socketId)
{
socket = new ClientSocket;
socket->setSocketDescriptor(socketId);

QThread *socketThread = new QThread;

socket->moveToThread(socketThread);
socketThread->start();

}


With this code I expected two threads. One main thread and another for my ClientSocket. But using



qDebug() << QThread::currentThreadId;


returns always the same ThreadID (in Server and ClientSocket class).

What am I doing wrong? Or am I using currentThreadId wrong?
Thanks for your help.

If QThread::currentThreadId() returns the same thread id every time, you're calling it from the same thread every time. How did you setup the code path to this call?

Well I did the following:
I created a timer in the Constructor of my ClientSocket:


QTimer *timer = new QTimer(this);
connect(timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(displayThreadID()));
timer->start(500);


void ClientSocket::displayThreadID()
{
qDebug() << QThread::currentThreadId;
}

The ID isn't different from the ID in the main Thread, before creating the Thread for the socket.

At the moment my applications starts crashing sometimes because of thread errors... :(
