I am trying to write some multithreadable Qt programs. I have qt3 installed on my laptop, and I am alraedy able to do normal Qt programs. However, I thought that if you want to use QThread and stuff like that you have to reconfigure it, or maybe im wrong.

I read somewhere that you can reconfigure qt by doing make clean in the qt directory then do configure -thread. However, there is no makefile in my qt3 directory, and I am confused.

How do I configure Qt to do my multithreading stuff??

Please give any info you feel is useful...

I try to do

class UpdateThread : QThread {
<class implmentation>
};

and i get a parse error befor the { on teh first line, and a parse error befor the last }.

If I take QThread out, and replace it with AnalogClock (another class in the file), then it compiles fine with no errors.

Any ideas? I think it has something to do with thread configuration...

Whether your Qt is thread-enabled or not is
reasonably easily determined ...

ls -l `locate libqt-mt`

If it's a real .so file, not a symlink to a
normal libqt, you're fine.


Cheers,
