Qt Signal Slot Template Class
Each PyQt widget, which is derived from QObject class, is designed to emit ‘signal’ in response to one or more events. The signal on its own does not perform any action. Instead, it is ‘connected’ to a ‘slot’. The slot can be any callable Python function. In PyQt, connection between a signal and a slot can be achieved in different ways. When the number of pending resultReadyAt or resultsReadyAt signals exceeds the limit, the computation represented by the future will be throttled automatically. The computation will resume once the number of pending signals drops below the limit. Example: Starting a computation and getting a slot callback when it's finished. The string-based SIGNAL and SLOT syntax will detect type mismatches at runtime. Signals and slots are loosely coupled: A class which emits a signal neither knows nor cares which slots receive the signal. Qt's signals and slots mechanism ensures that if you connect a signal to a slot, the slot will be called with the signal's parameters at the. So you will link/connect a objects that sends a signal to a slot that receives the signal. Here is a basic GUI for a QT application that will have a button that says “QUIT” and also a signal that is emitted once that button class clicked has happened, that links to the application (QApplication object) that has a “quit” function that stops the program from executing.
In this tutorial we will learn How to use signal and slots in qt.
