    \class QAbstractEventDispatcher
    \brief The QAbstractEventDispatcher class provides an interface to manage Qt's event queue.

    \ingroup events

    An event dispatcher receives events from the window system and other
    sources. It then sends them to the QCoreApplication or QApplication
    instance for processing and delivery. QAbstractEventDispatcher provides
    fine-grained control over event delivery.

    For simple control of event processing use
    QCoreApplication::processEvents().

    For finer control of the application's event loop, call
    instance() and call functions on the QAbstractEventDispatcher
    object that is returned. If you want to use your own instance of
    QAbstractEventDispatcher or of a QAbstractEventDispatcher
    subclass, you must create your instance \e before you create the
    QApplication object.

    The main event loop is started by calling
    QCoreApplication::exec(), and stopped by calling
    QCoreApplication::exit(). Local event loops can be created using
    QEventLoop.

    Programs that perform long operations can call processEvents()
    with a bitwise OR combination of various QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag
    values to control which events should be delivered.

    QAbstractEventDispatcher also allows the integration of an
    external event loop with the Qt event loop. For example, the
    \l{Qt Solutions}{Motif Extension Qt Solution} includes a
    reimplementation of QAbstractEventDispatcher that merges Qt and
    Motif events together.

    \fn bool QAbstractEventDispatcher::processEvents(QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlags flags)

    Processes pending events that match \a flags until there are no
    more events to process. Returns true if an event was processed;
    otherwise returns false.

    This function is especially useful if you have a long running
    operation and want to show its progress without allowing user
    input; i.e. by using the QEventLoop::ExcludeUserInputEvents flag.

    If the QEventLoop::WaitForMoreEvents flag is set in \a flags, the
    behavior of this function is as follows:

    \list

    \i If events are available, this function returns after processing
    them.

    \i If no events are available, this function will wait until more
    are available and return after processing newly available events.

    \endlist

    If the QEventLoop::WaitForMoreEvents flag is not set in \a flags,
    and no events are available, this function will return
    immediately.

    \bold{Note:} This function does not process events continuously; it
    returns after all available events are processed.

*/

/*! \fn void QAbstractEventDispatcher::unregisterSocketNotifier(QSocketNotifier *notifier)

    Unregisters \a notifier from the event dispatcher. Subclasses must
    reimplement this method to tie a socket notifier into another
    event loop. Reimplementations must call the base
    implementation.

    The event filter function set here is called for all messages
    taken from the system event loop before the event is dispatched to
    the respective target, including the messages not meant for Qt
    objects.

    The event filter function should return true if the message should
    be filtered, (i.e. stopped). It should return false to allow

    returns a null EventFilter the first time it is called).
