QThread blocking wait()

[bunjee]

Hey there,

I've implemented a QThread.

Here is my run function:

void qkReceptor::run()
{
    // A timer to avoid high CPU charge
    QTimer timer;
 
    connect(&timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(onCheckStdin()), Qt::DirectConnection);
    connect(this, SIGNAL(newLine(QString)), this, SLOT(onNewLine(QString)), Qt::BlockingQueuedConnection);
 
    timer.start(100);
 
    QThread::exec();
}

void qkReceptor::run()
{
    // A timer to avoid high CPU charge
    QTimer timer;

    connect(&timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(onCheckStdin()), Qt::DirectConnection);
    connect(this, SIGNAL(newLine(QString)), this, SLOT(onNewLine(QString)), Qt::BlockingQueuedConnection);

    timer.start(100);

    QThread::exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Here is my stop function:

void qkReceptor::stop()
{
    QThread::quit();
    QThread::wait(); // Infinite loop here
}

void qkReceptor::stop()
{
    QThread::quit();
    QThread::wait(); // Infinite loop here
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

When calling stop from my main thread, wait blocks everything.
Why?

Thanks.
