Seems a bug in Qt Documentation

[binsqt]

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qthread.html

In the example, class Controller:
@
connect(workerThread, SIGNAL(finished()), worker, SLOT(deleteLater()));
@
==>
@
connect(&workerThread, SIGNAL(finished()), worker, SLOT(deleteLater()));
@
Notice the "&".

[andreyc EDIT] Added @ around code

It should give you compilation error if you copy-paste the code from 4.8 documentation. Future release documentation have fixed this issue

It might not give compilation errors, but a compilation error that no cast was used from int to pointer use or something like it. But use the 5.3 docs, they are updated!
