Member Function Documentation

QTaskBuilder<Task, Args...> &QTaskBuilder::onThreadPool(QThreadPool &newThreadPool)

Sets the thread pool newThreadPool that the task will be invoked on.

QFuture<QtConcurrent::InvokeResultType> QTaskBuilder::spawn()

Runs the task in a separate thread and returns a future object immediately. This is a non-blocking call. The task might not start immediately.

void QTaskBuilder::spawn(QtConcurrent::FutureResult)

Runs the task in a separate thread. This is a non-blocking call. The task might not start immediately.

template <typename ExtraArgs> QTaskBuilder<Task, ExtraArgs...> QTaskBuilder::withArguments(ExtraArgs &&... args)

Sets the arguments args the task will be invoked with. The code is ill-formed (causes compilation errors) if:

  • This function is invoked more than once.
  • The arguments count is zero.

QTaskBuilder<Task, Args...> &QTaskBuilder::withPriority(int newPriority)

Sets the priority newPriority that the task will be invoked with.

[alias] InvokeResultType

The simplified definition of this type looks like this:

template <class Task, class ...Args>
using InvokeResultType = std::invoke_result_t<std::decay_t<Task>, std::decay_t<Args>...>;

The real implementation also contains a compile-time check for whether the task can be invoked with the specified arguments or not.
