QNetworkReply: how to know when data is sent?

[mentalmushroom]

I send logout because it is better to send than not to send (third party server recommends to send it). Also I upload some data that may be useful, but if it fails it is not critical. Moreover if logout fails in most cases I can't do anything with that, so result can be only logged somewhere and it is not that important for users. But as long as it doesn't make my application inconvenient to users I think it is better to call logout and upload all the data that may be useful.

Then don't wait for anything, send the data and start closing your app. With a bit of luck, the request will go through. If not then you don't care anyway... If you do care, then wait a predefined amount of time for a response and if you don't get it during this period, abandon the request and close your app.

Well, eventually I came to the same approach. I can afford it to wait for let's say 1 second, the only bad side is that waiting for data sent in most cases would take less time, but with this approach I still have to wait 1 second that is for the worst case. My question: is there any place where I can ask to add this feature? To my mind having dataSent signal would be useful.

Qt is open-source, add the feature yourself. It should be just a couple lines of code.
