    Default How to wait till all the Qt concurent threads finished with exec() and then continue

    I am running 5 threads as below

    Qt Code:
    1. void dialog::myfunction()
    2. {
    3. for(int i=0; i< 5 ; i++
    4. {
    5. QtConcurrent::run()
    6. }
    7.  
    8. QEventLoop l_event;
    9. i_event.exec()
    10.  
    11. qDebu() <<"All threads finished";
    12.  
    13. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    I want to wait here till all the threads get finished.

    Qt Code:
    1. void QFutureSynchronizer::waitForFinished () //is hanging my main GUI.
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    So I want to use some thing like this QEventLoop::exec(); But qDebug() is not getting called at all, Is there a way to reach qDebug() once all the threads finished.
    For some other reason I can not use QFutureWatcher().

    Any suggestions ?

    No, that schedules 5 tasks on the global thread pool.
    Whether that gets executed by 5 threads or any other number depends on that thread pool.

    There seems to be nothing that quits the even loop.

    Why not? QtConcurrent::run() returns a QFuture

    I did some thing like this.

    Qt Code:
    1. void dialog::myfunction()
    2. {
    3. for(int i=0; i< 5 ; i++
    4. {
    5. QtConcurrent::run()
    6. }
    7.  
    8. m_eventLoop= new QEventLoop(); //QPointer<QEventLoop> m_eventLoop; QPointer automatically make a pointer NULL when it gets deleted
    9. m_eventLoop->exec();
    10.  
    11. //do things after threads finished
    12.  
    13. qDebug() <<"All threads finished";
    14.  
    15. }
    16.  
    17.  
    18. void dialog::finishedAllThread()
    19. {
    20. if(m_eventLoop){
    21. m_eventLoop->quit();
    22. m_eventLoop->deleteLater();
    23. }
    24. }
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 


    //I use QFutureWatcher, finished() signal to get to know when all the threads finished
    //I can use QFutureWatcher actually, But I should not do things in slot instead I should do things in myfunction() only.
