详解 Qt 线程间共享数据(用信号槽方式)

使用共享内存。即使用一个两个线程都能够共享的变量(如全局变量),这样两个线程都能够访问和修改该变量,从而达到共享数据的目的。

Qt 线程间共享数据是本文介绍的内容,多的不说,先来啃内容。Qt线程间共享数据主要有两种方式:

使用共享内存。即使用一个两个线程都能够共享的变量(如全局变量),这样两个线程都能够访问和修改该变量,从而达到共享数据的目的;

使用singal/slot机制,把数据从一个线程传递到另外一个线程。

第一种办法在各个编程语言都使用普遍,而第二种方式倒是QT的特有方式,下面主要学习一下这种方式:

在线程之间传递signal与在一个线程内传递signal是不一样的。在一个线程内传递signal时,emit语句会直接调用所有连接的slot并等待到所有slot被处理完;在线程之间传递signal时,slot会被放到队列中(queue),而emit这个signal后会马上返回;默认情况,线程之间使用queue机制,而线程内使用direct机制,但在connect中可以改变这些默认的机制。

206 bar.wait();
207 return 0;
208 }

  上面例子代码可以看出两个线程之间传送了类型为QString的信息。像QString等这些QT本身定义的类型,直接传送即可。但如果是自己定义的类型如果想使用signal/slot来传递的话,则没有这么简单。直接使用的话,会产生下面这种错误:

1 QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type ‘TextAndNumber‘ (Make sure ‘TextAndNumber‘ is registed using qRegisterMetaType().) 

  

原因:当一个signal被放到队列中(queued)时,它的参数(arguments)也会被一起一起放到队列中(queued起来),这就意味着参数在被传送到slot之前需要被拷贝、存储在队列中(queue)中;为了能够在队列中存储这些参数(argument),Qt需要去construct、destruct、copy这些对象,而为了让Qt知道怎样去作这些事情,参数的类型需要使用qRegisterMetaType来注册(如错误提示中的说明)

步骤:(以自定义TextAndNumber类型为例)

自定一种类型,在这个类型的顶部包含:#include <QMetaType>

在类型定义完成后,加入声明:Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(TextAndNumber);

在main()函数中注册这种类型:qRegisterMetaType<TextAndNumber>("TextAndNumber");

如果还希望使用这种类型的引用,可同样要注册:qRegisterMetaType<TextAndNumber>("TextAndNumber&");
