Using Arguments with SingleShotTimer

[leinad]

Hi,

Is it possible to execute a method which has arguments launched by a single shot timer?

QTimer::singleShot(0, this, SLOT(processMessageBox(arg1, arg2)));

I tried using lamda functions but can't seem to get it to work. If there is a way, can you please provide an example?

Thanks in advance!

@leinad sure, lambda is the way to go, assuming arg1 and arg2 are actual variable names

QTimer::singleShot(0, this, [=]()->void{
     //= by-copy capture default
    processMessageBox(arg1, arg2);
});

that said, a single shot time is a bit heavy weight for a 0 timeout, I would recommend QMetaObject::invokeMethod

QMetaObject::invokeMethod(this, [=]()->void{
     //= by-copy capture default
    processMessageBox(arg1, arg2);
}, Qt::QueuedConnection // same effect as 0 timeout of a Qtimer
);

Great thanks!. Let me give it a try :)
