Making Qt SOAP synchronous / efficiency of an empty while loop in a QThread ?

[nooky59]

Hi,

In my app, I used gSOAP for a long time, which make blocking calls, so it was perfect for my traditionnal QThread design.

I have noticed a problem, on most Linux platform (and Mac OS X I think), but not on Windows, where a float was truncated by the simple fact of instanciating a QApplication object... quite problematic...

So, I would like to use Qt Soap instead but this last one works in an asynchronous fashion and I don't want to reafactor all my app for the moment.

Can I have performance problems with an empy while loop like this, that wait for the answer of the SOAP server ?

http.submitRequest(request, "/");
 
    while(!http.networkReply())
    {
 
    }
 
   // Dealing with the result

http.submitRequest(request, "/");

    while(!http.networkReply())
    {

    }

   // Dealing with the result
