    Exclamation QtConcurrentRun and global function

    Hello, I am having some global functions in a separate glob.h file included in the *.cpp files that need to use these functions...
    My question is, how can I start one of these global functions using qtconcurrentrun while these functions don't have a parent?
    For example, for a normal use, I would call
    Qt Code:
    1. QtConcurrent::run(this, &MainWindow::my_function);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    But the global function isn't in 'this' object and doesn't have a class (like MainWindow)...
    I tried with NULL instead of 'this' and simply function's name as second argument...

    I am not sure who to use it.... Anybody with an idea ?

    Why not like this:
    Qt Code:
    1. void someFunction(){
    2. ...
    3. }
    4.  
    5. QFuture<void> f = QtConcurrent::run(someFunction);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    Its in the docs
