It +then sends them to <a href="qapplication.html">TQApplication</a> for processing and delivery. +<p> TQEventLoop allows the application programmer to have more control +over event delivery. Programs that perform long operations can +call either processOneEvent() or <a href="#processEvents">processEvents</a>() with various +ProcessEvent values OR'ed together to control which events should +be delivered. +<p> TQEventLoop also allows the integration of an external event loop +with the TQt event loop. The <a href="motif-extension.html#Motif">Motif</a> Extension included with TQt +includes a reimplementation of TQEventLoop for merging TQt and Motif +events together. +<p> To use your own instance of TQEventLoop or TQEventLoop subclass create +it before you create the TQApplication object. +<p>See also <a href="application.html">Main Window and Related Classes</a> and <a href="events.html">Event Classes</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="ProcessEvents-enum"></a>TQEventLoop::ProcessEvents</h3> +<p> This enum controls the types of events processed by the +<a href="#processEvents">processEvents</a>() functions. +<ul> +<li><tt>TQEventLoop::AllEvents</tt> - All events are processed +<li><tt>TQEventLoop::ExcludeUserInput</tt> - Do not process user input events. +( ButtonPress, KeyPress, etc. ) +<li><tt>TQEventLoop::ExcludeSocketNotifiers</tt> - Do not process socket notifier +events. +<li><tt>TQEventLoop::WaitForMore</tt> - Wait for events if no pending events +are available. +</ul><p> <p>See also <a href="#processEvents">processEvents</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn><a name="ProcessEventsFlags"></a>TQEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlags</h3> +A <tt>typedef</tt> to allow various ProcessEvents values to be OR'ed together. +<p> <p>See also <a href="#ProcessEvents-enum">ProcessEvents</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQEventLoop"></a>TQEventLoop::TQEventLoop ( <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a> * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 ) +</h3> +Creates a TQEventLoop object, this object becomes the global event loop object. +There can only be one event loop object. The TQEventLoop is usually constructed +by calling <a href="qapplication.html#eventLoop">TQApplication::eventLoop</a>(). To create your own event loop object create +it before you instantiate the <a href="qapplication.html">TQApplication</a> object. +<p> The <em>parent</em> and <em>name</em> arguments are passed on to the <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a> constructor. + +<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQEventLoop"></a>TQEventLoop::~TQEventLoop () +</h3> +Destructs the TQEventLoop object. + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="aboutToBlock"></a>TQEventLoop::aboutToBlock ()<tt> [signal]</tt> +</h3> +<p> This signal is emitted before the event loop calls a function that +could block. +<p> <p>See also <a href="#awake">awake</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>int <a name="activateSocketNotifiers"></a>TQEventLoop::activateSocketNotifiers () +</h3> +<p> Activates all pending socket notifiers and returns the number of +socket notifiers that were activated. + +<h3 class=fn>int <a name="activateTimers"></a>TQEventLoop::activateTimers () +</h3> +<p> Activates all TQt timers and returns the number of timers that were +activated. +<p> TQEventLoop subclasses that do their own timer handling need to +call this after the time returned by <a href="#timeToWait">timeToWait</a>() has elapsed. +<p> Note: This function is only useful on systems where <tt>select()</tt> is +used to block the eventloop. On Windows, this function always +returns 0. On MacOS X, this function always returns 0 when the +GUI is enabled.

The +main event loop receives events from the window system and +dispatches these to the application widgets. +<p> Generally speaking, no user interaction can take place before +calling <a href="#exec">exec</a>(). As a special case, modal widgets like <a href="qmessagebox.html">TQMessageBox</a> +can be used before calling exec(), because modal widgets call +exec() to start a local event loop. +<p> To make your application perform idle processing, i.e. executing a +special function whenever there are no pending events, use a +<a href="qtimer.html">TQTimer</a> with 0 timeout. More advanced idle processing schemes can +be achieved using <a href="#processEvents">processEvents</a>(). +<p> <p>See also <a href="qapplication.html#tquit">TQApplication::tquit</a>(), <a href="#exit">exit</a>(), and <a href="#processEvents">processEvents</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="exit"></a>TQEventLoop::exit ( int retcode = 0 )<tt> [virtual]</tt> +</h3> +<p> Tells the event loop to exit with a return code. +<p> After this function has been called, the event loop returns from +the call to <a href="#exec">exec</a>().
