<class name="QAbstractEventDispatcher" doc="/**
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#QAbstractEventDispatcher(com.trolltech.qt.core.QObject)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QAbstractEventDispatcher&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; class manages Qt's event queue, excluding GUI-related events.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An event dispatcher receives events from the window system and other sources. It then sends them to the &lt;a href=&quot;QCoreApplication.html&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QCoreApplication&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; or &lt;a href=&quot;%2E%2E/gui/QApplication.html&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QApplication&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; instance for processing and delivery. &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#QAbstractEventDispatcher(com.trolltech.qt.core.QObject)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QAbstractEventDispatcher&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; provides fine-grained control over event delivery.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For simple control of event processing use QCoreApplication::processEvents().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For finer control of the application's event loop, call &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#instance(java.lang.Thread)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;instance&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and call functions on the &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#QAbstractEventDispatcher(com.trolltech.qt.core.QObject)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QAbstractEventDispatcher&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; object that is returned. If you want to use your own instance of &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#QAbstractEventDispatcher(com.trolltech.qt.core.QObject)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QAbstractEventDispatcher&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; or of a &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#QAbstractEventDispatcher(com.trolltech.qt.core.QObject)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QAbstractEventDispatcher&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; subclass, you must create your instance &lt;i&gt;before&lt;/i&gt; you create the &lt;a href=&quot;%2E%2E/gui/QApplication.html&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QApplication&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; object.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The main event loop is started by calling QCoreApplication::exec(), and stopped by calling QCoreApplication::exit(). Local event loops can be created using &lt;a href=&quot;QEventLoop.html&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QEventLoop&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Programs that perform long operations can call &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#processEvents(com.trolltech.qt.core.QEventLoop.ProcessEventsFlags)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;processEvents&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; with a bitwise OR combination of various QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag values to control which events should be delivered.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#QAbstractEventDispatcher(com.trolltech.qt.core.QObject)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QAbstractEventDispatcher&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; also allows the integration of an external event loop with the Qt event loop. For example, the Motif Extension included with Qt includes a reimplementation of &lt;a href=&quot;QAbstractEventDispatcher.html#QAbstractEventDispatcher(com.trolltech.qt.core.QObject)&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;QAbstractEventDispatcher&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; that merges Qt and Motif events together.&lt;/p&gt;
