      @Christian-Ehrlicher , is it any surprise I'm confused, in that thread you pointed me to the Fortune client and server examples, which I have been following then there is conflicting advice that comes back form this forum when I implement a solution that I'm having problems with.

      Add to this the what appears to be flaky Qt Creator with updates that seem to send me backwards. I feel I'm loosing the plot.

      Kind Regards,
      Sy

        The old thread told you to use signals and slots and not the waitFor functions and now we're at the exactly same place.

            @Christian-Ehrlicher , the examples that ship with Qt 5.15.2 include:

            blockingfortuneclient
            threadedfortuneserver

            On looking at both, these are the sources I used to base my work on. My server is slightly different in that the clients are intended to stay connected after establishing a connection.

            I will compare the client source with my own.

            Kind Regards,
            Sy

              From my pov you don't need threads at all but this is not what you want to hear for whatever reason - you rather work on simple stuff like a QTcpSocket for months.

                @Christian-Ehrlicher , one day I will be ready to share what I'm working on, which isn't now.

                  @SPlatten said in QTcpSocket, execution halts why and what does it mean?:

                  one day I will be ready to share what I'm working on, which isn't now.

                  This sentence sounds strange to me.

                  I think you misunderstanding some comments/replies you received here.
                  My personal goal is to help other developers to solve problem they have will creating software with Qt, like I received help from other to solve/understand errors in my software.

                  On the other side, this also helps me to get a better overview of Qt Framework and continue to learn.

                  It is an old maxim of mine that when you have excluded the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. (Sherlock Holmes)

                    @KroMignon , sorry, some of the comments, not yours I find a little offensive.

                    Kind Regards,

                      This is exactly why I'm here :D
