Solved QThread and QThreadPool coexistence

[borisruna]

Is it OK to create a QThreadPool that spawns workers, when your application already has a QThread , or do I have to use only a single QThreadPool in the application, that spawns QRunnables and work with those?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

These two have two different use cases so yes, you can use both in the same application.

What is your use case ?

I would like to have a long running QThread that captures my webcam with OpenCV, and would like to be possible to use QThreadPool to use python's requests library to POST screenshots to a web server when a user clicks a button.

I don't see any issue using both.

Much appreciated @SGaist!
