Detailed Description

Base class for feedback objects to be used for cancellation of something running in a worker thread.

The class may be used as is or it may be subclassed for extended functionality for a particular operation (e.g. report progress or pass some data for preview).

When cancel() is called, the internal code has two options to check for cancellation state:

The class is meant to be created and destroyed in the main thread.

For map rendering, the object may be created in constructor of a QgsMapLayerRenderer subclass and available with QgsMapLayerRenderer::feedback() method. When a map rendering job gets cancelled, the cancel() method is called on the feedback object of all layers.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsFeedback()

QgsFeedback::QgsFeedback ( QObject parent = nullptr)
inline

Construct a feedback object.

◆ ~QgsFeedback()

virtual QgsFeedback::~QgsFeedback ( )
inlinevirtual

Definition at line 50 of file qgsfeedback.h.

Member Function Documentation

◆ cancel()

void QgsFeedback::cancel ( )
inline

Tells the internal routines that the current operation should be cancelled. This should be run by the main thread.

Definition at line 53 of file qgsfeedback.h.

◆ cancelled

void QgsFeedback::cancelled ( )
signal

Internal routines can connect to this signal if they use event loop.

◆ isCancelled()

bool QgsFeedback::isCancelled ( ) const
inline

Tells whether the operation has been cancelled already.
