crash in emit()

[mhoover]

For some reason when I try to emit a QString I get a segfault.

void UDPClient::logEvent( const QString & event, int at_debug ) {
      QString event2 = event;
      stopper.lock(); 
      emit debugEvent( event2 );  // <--- Segfaults right here
      stopper.unlock();
}

void UDPClient::logEvent( const QString & event, int at_debug ) {
      QString event2 = event;
      stopper.lock(); 
      emit debugEvent( event2 );  // <--- Segfaults right here
      stopper.unlock();
}

When I went digging through the backtrace I found it was trying to call all the connected slots using a Qt::AutoConnection.

if ((c->connectionType == Qt::AutoConnection

if ((c->connectionType == Qt::AutoConnection

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

(According to the qtcreator debugger, c->connectionType was 0 which is the same as Qt::AutoConnection).

The strange part is the only connection I make to this signal I emit is to another signal in the QThread that owns this object. And it never reaches any slots.

Anyway, I can just comment it out for now, but I'd like to know what mistake I'm making.
