Re: Use QThread in qt-3.1


Message 1 in thread

According to the documentation gui elements can only be created and  
modified in main thread. If you want some other threads to change gui  
use QCustomEvent to define ur own events for gui.

Please read this:

Please take a look at "Thread-safe Event Posting"
