void QCoreApplication::processEvents ( QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlags flags = QEventLoop::AllEvents ) [static]
Processes all pending events for the calling thread according to the specified flags until there are no more events to process.
You can call this function occasionally when your program is busy performing a long operation (e.g. copying a file).
In event you are running a local loop which calls this function continuously, without an event loop, the DeferredDelete events will not be processed. This can affect the behaviour of widgets, e.g. QToolTip, that rely on DeferredDelete events to function properly. An alternative would be to call sendPostedEvents() from within that local loop.
Calling this function processes events only for the calling thread.
Note: This function is thread-safe.
See also exec(), QTimer, QEventLoop::processEvents(), flush(), and sendPostedEvents().
