From 98f4c97768494a86b1598562335f6cf36e4351d7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Buhr Date: Tue, 6 Oct 2020 15:07:06 +0200 Subject: Correct processEvents documentation The documentation of processEvents states that it processes all pending events. However, this is not true for the glib backend and probably was not true for at least a decade. QEventDispatcherGlib::processEvents(ProcessEventsFlags) calls "g_main_context_iteration" which is documented to only process events of highest priority: https://developer.gnome.org/glib/2.66/glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#g-main-context-iteration Fixes: QTBUG-87307 Task-number: QTBUG-84291 Pick-to: 5.15 Change-Id: I82c6f9dba865bb07f981ad648a128316749682ca Reviewed-by: Thiago Macieira --- src/corelib/kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/corelib/kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp') diff --git a/src/corelib/kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp b/src/corelib/kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp index 38cc445e2a..ec227f6d99 100644 --- a/src/corelib/kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp +++ b/src/corelib/kernel/qcoreapplication.cpp @@ -1228,8 +1228,8 @@ bool QCoreApplication::closingDown() /*! - Processes all pending events for the calling thread according to - the specified \a flags until there are no more events to process. + Processes some pending events for the calling thread according to + the specified \a flags.
