How to debounce QLineEdit::textEdited signal

[Shines]

QObject::connect(xyz, &QLineEdit::textEdited, [this](const QString& text)
{
std::vector<int> intList = Parse(text);

    {
      
    }
});

@Shines
Please ask a question. No idea what your problem is, or how the code might relate to "debounce QLineEdit::textEdited signal".

textedited signal is emitted for every character typed. But i want the signal to be emitted after editing is complete and then I want to parse the text.

@Shines
Then use editingFinished signal like the docs state.

@JonB
I dont want to use editingFinished as the slot may differ. Also textEdited(const QString &) accepts args against editingFinished(). I guess with textEdited(const QString &) parsing would be easier

What do you mean? Why exactly can't you use this signal?
What is your definition of "editing finished"?

Don't know what this means. You do want to use editingFinished, even if you think you don't! As you said

But i want the signal to be emitted after editing is complete

which is exactly what it does and what it's there for. And no you do not need the const QString & argument as you know where the text is to access it.

Haven't we had just this conversation in another thread recently?
