QSocketNotifier: Socket notifiers cannot be enabled or disabled from another thread

@mrjj the header of server look like:

#ifndef MYSERVER_H
#define MYSERVER_H

#include <QObject>
#include <QDebug>
#include <QTcpServer>
#include <QTcpSocket>
#include <QString>
#include <QFile>
#include <QStandardPaths>
#include <QThread>
#include <QElapsedTimer>
#include <pool.h>
#include <QDateTime>
class MyServer : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    explicit MyServer(QObject *parent = nullptr);

signals:

public slots:
    void newConnection();
    void onReadyRead();

private:
    QTcpServer *server;
    QList<QTcpSocket*>  _sockets;
    QString a;
    QString com;
    QTcpSocket *socket;
    QList<QTcpSocket*> sl;
/*protected:
    void incomingConnection(qintptr socketDescriptor) override;*/
};

#endif // MYSERVER_H

Sorry but please learn C++ first. If you want to override a function from a class you should inherit from this class. So inherit from QTcpServer, override the function and do whatever you want to. This is basic c++ stuff...

@Christian-Ehrlicher That's the thing, that I didn't notice. Thanks

[rktech]

@Christian-Ehrlicher But I don't know, how to edit it.

I have rewritten half of my project to solve the problem:
myserver.h

#ifndef MYSERVER_H
#define MYSERVER_H
#include <QStringList>
#include <QTcpServer>
#include <QDateTime>
class MyServer : public QTcpServer
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    MyServer(QObject *parent = nullptr);

protected:
    void incomingConnection(qintptr socketDescriptor) override;

private:
    QStringList fortunes;
};

#endif // MYSERVER_H

myserver.cpp

#include "myserver.h"
#include "pool.h"
Pool p;

MyServer::MyServer(QObject *parent)
    : QTcpServer(parent)
{
    p.start();
}

void MyServer::incomingConnection(qintptr socketDescriptor)
{
QDateTime qdt;
p.add(socketDescriptor,qdt.time());
}

pool.h

#ifndef POOL_H
#define POOL_H
#include<QObject>
#include<QThread>
#include<QTcpSocket>
#include<QDateTime>
#include<QElapsedTimer>
class Pool : public QThread
{
    Q_OBJECT

protected:
    void run();
private:
    struct conn{
        QTcpSocket *s;
        QTime qdt;
    };
    QList<conn> x;
public:
    void add(int socketDescriptor, QTime qdt);
};
#endif // POOL_H

pool.cpp

#include "pool.h"
#include <QElapsedTimer>
void Pool::run()
{
QElapsedTimer qet;
qet.start();
while (true) {
    if(qet.elapsed()>=5000){
        foreach (conn y, x) {
            if(y.s==nullptr){
                qDebug()<<"empty";
                continue;
            }
            y.s->write("test");
            y.s->flush();
        }
        qet.restart();
    }
}
}
void Pool::add(int socketDescriptor, QTime qdt){
QTcpSocket* s = new QTcpSocket;
s->setSocketDescriptor(socketDescriptor);
s->write("1\n");
conn c;
c.s=s;
c.qdt=qdt;
x.append(c);
}

But I have still the same error:

QSocketNotifier: Socket notifiers cannot be enabled or disabled from another thread

What's wrong?

[SGaist]

Because your add method is called in the thread of the tcp server.

As I already told you, the socket creation must happen in the run function.

[rktech]

@SGaist I have solved it. I am creating a list of descriptors in add() method and then rewriting it like this:
pool.cpp

void Pool::run()
{
QElapsedTimer qet;
qet.start();
while (true) {
    if(!d.empty()){
        qDebug()<<"rewriting";
        for (int i = 0; i<d.size();i++) {
            desc des = d[i];
            conn con;
            QTcpSocket* soc = new QTcpSocket;
            soc->setSocketDescriptor(des.descriptor);
            con.s=soc;
            con.qdt=des.qt;
            d.removeAt(i);
            x.append(con);
        }
        qDebug()<<"done";
    }
    if(qet.elapsed()>=5000){
        foreach (conn y, x) {
            if(!y.s->isOpen()){
                qDebug()<<"empty";
                continue;
            }
            y.s->write("test");
            qDebug()<<"l";
            y.s->flush();
        }
        qet.restart();
    }
}
}
void Pool::add(int socketDescriptor, QTime qdt){
desc de;
de.descriptor=socketDescriptor;
de.qt=qdt;
d.append(de);
}

definitions of structs and lists in pool.h:

  struct conn{
        QTcpSocket *s;
        QTime qdt;
    };
    struct desc{
        qintptr descriptor;
        QTime qt;
    };
    QList<conn> x;
    QList<desc> d;

You are missing one important thing: you are accessing a resource from two different threads. You should protect its access accordingly.

[rktech]

@SGaist In my last code it is fixed, right? If no, how to protect it correctly?

[SGaist]

When using a new technology it's always a good idea to start by reading the documentation.

[rktech]

@SGaist I have read it, but I didn't catch what should I edit in my code.

[SGaist]

Did you read the Synchronizing Threads chapter linked in it ?
