You must also provide a function that connects the signal +to an outside object slot. This is how we have implemented +signals in the <a href="qmenudata.html">QMenuData</a> class, which is not a QObject. +<p> In general, we recommend inheriting QObject instead. QObject +provides much more functionality. +<p> You can set a single <a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> parameter for the signal with +<a href="#setValue">setValue</a>(). +<p> Note that QObject is a <em>private</em> base class of QSignal, i.e. you +cannot call any QObject member functions from a QSignal object. +<p> Example: +<pre> + #include <<a href="qsignal-h.html">qsignal.h</a>> + + class MyClass + { + public: + MyClass(); + ~MyClass(); + + void doSomething(); + + void connect( <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> *receiver, const char *member ); + + private: + QSignal *sig; + }; + + MyClass::MyClass() + { + sig = new QSignal; + } + + MyClass::~MyClass() + { + delete sig; + } + + void MyClass::doSomething() + { + // ... does something + sig-><a href="#activate">activate</a>(); // emits the signal + } + + void MyClass::connect( <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> *receiver, const char *member ) + { + sig-><a href="#connect">connect</a>( receiver, member ); + } + </pre> + +<p>See also <a href="io.html">Input/Output and Networking</a> and <a href="misc.html">Miscellaneous Classes</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="QSignal"></a>QSignal::QSignal ( <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 ) +</h3> +Constructs a signal object called <em>name</em>, with the parent object +<em>parent</em>.
