9、Qt 事件处理机制

 

在Qt中,事件被封装成一个个对象,所有的事件均继承自抽象类QEvent. 接下来依次谈谈Qt中有谁来产生、分发、接受和处理事件。

本篇来介绍Qt 事件处理机制。深入了解事件处理系统对于每个学习Qt人来说非常重要,可以说,Qt是以事件驱动的UI工具集。 大家熟知Signals/Slots在多线程的实现也依赖于Qt事件处理机制

Qt中,事件被封装成一个个对象,所有的事件均继承自抽象类QEvent.  接下来依次谈谈Qt中有谁来产生、分发、接受和处理事件

1、谁来产生事件: 最容易想到的是我们的输入设备,比如键盘、鼠标产生的

keyPressEvent,keyReleaseEvent,mousePressEvent,mouseReleaseEvent事件(他们被封装成QMouseEvent和QKeyEvent),这些事件来自于底层的操作系统,它们以异步的形式通知Qt事件处理系统,后文会仔细道来。当然Qt自己也会产生很多事件,比如QObject::startTimer()会触发QTimerEvent. 
用户的程序可还以自己定制事件

2、谁来接受和处理事件:答案是QObject。在Qt的内省机制剖析一文已经介绍QObject 
类是整个Qt对象模型的心脏,事件处理机制是QObject三大职责(内存管理、内省(intropection)与事件处理制)之一。任何一个想要接受并处理事件的对象均须继承自QObject,可以选择重载QObject::event()函数或事件的处理权转给父类。

3、谁来负责分发事件:对于non-GUI的Qt程序,是由QCoreApplication负责将QEvent分发给QObject的子类-Receiver. 
对于Qt GUI程序,由QApplication来负责

接下来,将通过对代码的解析来看看QT是利用event loop从事件队列中获取用户输入事件,又是如何将事件转义成QEvents,并分发给相应的QObject处理。

从Section 1~Section7, Qt进入QApplication的event loop,经过层层委任,最终QEventloop的processEvent将通过与平台相关的QAbstractEventDispatcher的子类QEventDispatcherWin32获得用户的用户输入事件,并将其打包成message后,通过标准Windows API ,把消息传递给了Windows OS,Windows OS得到通知后回调QtWndProc,  至此事件的分发与处理完成了一半的路程。

在下文中,我们将进一步讨论当我们收到来在Windows的回调后,事件又是怎么一步步打包成QEvent并通过QApplication分发给最终事件的接受和处理者QObject::event

事件的产生、分发、接受和处理,并以视窗系统鼠标点击QWidget为例,对代码进行了剖析,向大家分析了Qt框架如何通过Event 
Loop处理进入处理消息队列循环,如何一步一步委派给平台相关的函数获取、打包用户输入事件交给视窗系统处理,函数调用栈如下:

1 main(int, char **)   2 QApplication::exec()   3 QCoreApplication::exec()   4 QEventLoop::exec(ProcessEventsFlags )   5 QEventLoop::processEvents(ProcessEventsFlags )6 QEventDispatcherWin32::processEvents(QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlags)

本文将介绍Qt app在视窗系统回调后,事件又是怎么一步步通过QApplication分发给最终事件的接受和处理者QWidget::event, (QWidget继承Object,重载其虚函数event),以下所有的讨论都将嵌入在源码之中。

  • // QCoreApplication::notify和它的重载函数QApplication::notify在Qt的派发过程中起到核心的作用,Qt的官方文档时这样说的:
  • //任何线程的任何对象的所有事件在发送时都会调用notify函数。
 1 bool QCoreApplication::notify(QObject *receiver, QEvent *event) 2 { 3     Q_D(QCoreApplication); 4     // no events are delivered after ~QCoreApplication() has started 5     if (QCoreApplicationPrivate::is_app_closing) 6         return true; 7  8     if (receiver == 0) {                        // serious error 9         qWarning("QCoreApplication::notify: Unexpected null receiver");10         return true;11     }12 13 #ifndef QT_NO_DEBUG14     d->checkReceiverThread(receiver);15 #endif16 17     return receiver->isWidgetType() ? false : d->notify_helper(receiver, event);18 }

notify 调用 notify_helper()
// Section 2-7:  $QTDIR\gui\kernel\qapplication.cpp     

 1 bool QCoreApplicationPrivate::notify_helper(QObject *receiver, QEvent * event) 2 { 3     // send to all application event filters 4     if (sendThroughApplicationEventFilters(receiver, event)) 5         return true; 6      // 向事件过滤器发送该事件,这里介绍一下Event Filters. 事件过滤器是一个接受即将发送给目标对象所有事件的对象。  7     //如代码所示它开始处理事件在目标对象行动之前。过滤器的QObject::eventFilter()实现被调用,能接受或者丢弃过滤 8     //允许或者拒绝事件的更进一步的处理。如果所有的事件过滤器允许更进一步的事件处理,事件将被发送到目标对象本身。 9     //如果他们中的一个停止处理,目标和任何后来的事件过滤器不能看到任何事件。10     if (sendThroughObjectEventFilters(receiver, event))11         return true;12     // deliver the event13     // 递交事件给receiver  => Section 2-8 14     return receiver->event(event);15 }

// Section 2-8  $QTDIR\gui\kernel\qwidget.cpp  

// QApplication通过notify及其私有类notify_helper,将事件最终派发给了QObject的子类- QWidget.

 1 bool QWidget::event(QEvent *event) 2 { 3     ... 4  5     switch (event->type()) { 6     case QEvent::MouseMove: 7         mouseMoveEvent((QMouseEvent*)event); 8         break; 9 10     case QEvent::MouseButtonPress:11         // Don‘t reset input context here.
