Hello, I'm the author of Siilihai web forum reader <http://siilihai.com> and i'm currently porting it to Sailfish. Siilihai needs to synchronize it's status (read messages etc) to a remote server when user quits it. I have not found a way to do it in Sailfish. When user closes the application, Sailfish terminates the Qt main loop which effectively makes it impossible to do any asynchronous tasks. On desktop QApplication::setQuitOnLastWindowClosed(false) can be used to instruct Qt to continue running main loop when last window is closed, but it does not work on Sailfish. Restarting the main loop worked on Harmattan, but on Sailfish it causes a crash inside Qt-Wayland code (qwaylandeventthread.cpp line 37). I also tried to create a Qt event filter with no success. Here is a example application to demonstrate the issue: http://talk.maemo.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=33970&d=1386249527 This application creates a repeating timer which stops working when the window is closed. I have already asked about the issue on TMO and #sailfishos, but didn't get any satisfactory answers. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=91947 The question is: is this a bug or intended behavior? Can anyone hack the example application so that the timer keeps running after the window is closed? - -- Ville Ranki <ville.ra...@iki.fi> http://www.iki.fi/~cos PGP public key: http://www.iki.fi/~cos/vranki_pub.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlKo0GQACgkQVm11nqR7UVwRQgCggY2EljkXfRGPA447691ztsqs fHMAnRTEAy146K9L+I/u1GkCpaoEn1xj =iwsA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
