Re: QTextEdit doesn't append text
Thank you very much. This solved the issue.
There is only one thing I'm noticing: even if I close my QMainWindow it seems the loop is not stopped... Any idea why?
Thanks!

Re: QTextEdit doesn't append text
Why would the loop stop if you close the window?

Re: QTextEdit doesn't append text
Right... But I also tried to call the quit() method of QApplication when I get the closeEvent of my main window, but nothing happens. Shouldn't that be sufficient?
Thanks for your help!

You won't receive a close event if you block the event loop.

Re: QTextEdit doesn't append text
Seems difficult to simply close an application...
I tried with:
qApp->setQuitOnLastWindowClosed(true);
but seems this is not quitting the event loop as well... Maybe my only option is to switch to using a worker thread...
