    Hi everyone,

    I just want to change the priority of my application to lowest for some certain reasons on Windows. I tried

    @QThread::currentThread()->setPriority(QThread::LowestPriority);@

    but the priority of the application is the same when I check it from the task manager. Could you please guide me how I can do it properly?

    thanks.

      You can use,

      QProcess::pid();
      It will give you Q_PID which is the _PROCESS_INFORMATION structure on windows.
      You can then set the Process priority using SetPriorityClass win32 function using the information from process information structure.

      HTH.

        Thanks. I will give it a try.
        Don't qt has a way for this since I will implement the same things in MAC OS X as well.
