* Make QFileSystemWatcherEngines children of QFileSystemWatcherBradley T. Hughes2012-01-121-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | To support moving QFileSystemWatcher to another thread, the engines need to follow when the watcher is moved. The easiest way to do this is by parenting the engines to the watcher.

* Remove unnecessary QMutexes in QFileSystemWatcher implementationsBradley T. Hughes2012-01-121-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The polling, inotify, and kqueue implementations are no longer threaded, and as such, do not need mutexes to protect their internal data (since QFileSystemWatcher itself is not documented as a thread-safe API). The Windows implementation is unchanged as it uses multiple threads explicitly.

* Remove thread from QFileSystemWatcherEngine implementations.Robin Burchell2012-01-101-20/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These threads are actually counterproductive, as generally speaking, processing watches is not that expensive an operation, so instead, they process at full speed and can (in the case of slow processing in the thread processing the events) stack up and consume resources for no good reason. Threads also have an additional resource consumption per engine (some ~8mb of thread stack on Linux), so doing away with them is nice. A side effect of this change is that events are now effectively rate-limited by the eventloop speed of the thread they run in, so if your thread runs too slow, and you recieve a lot of events, on some platforms, events may be dropped now where in the past, they would be read by the monitor thread and turned into Qt signals (thus not visibly showing as a problem, apart from invisibly bloating memory usage).
