Detailed Description

\inmodule QtCore

The QCoreApplication class provides an event loop for Qt applications without UI.

This class is used by non-GUI applications to provide their event loop. For non-GUI application that uses Qt, there should be exactly one QCoreApplication object. For GUI applications, see QGuiApplication. For applications that use the Qt Widgets module, see QApplication.

QCoreApplication contains the main event loop, where all events from the operating system (e.g., timer and network events) and other sources are processed and dispatched. It also handles the application's initialization and finalization, as well as system-wide and application-wide settings.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QCoreApplication() [1/2]

QCoreApplication::QCoreApplication	(	int &	argc,
		char **	argv,
		int	= ApplicationFlags
	)

Constructs a Qt core application.

Core applications are applications without a graphical user interface. Such applications are used at the console or as server processes.

The argc and argv arguments are processed by the application, and made available in a more convenient form by the arguments() function.

Warning

The data referred to by argc and argv must stay valid for the entire lifetime of the QCoreApplication object. In addition, argc must be greater than zero and argv must contain at least one valid character string.

Member Function Documentation

aboutToQuit

void QCoreApplication::aboutToQuit ( QPrivateSignal  )

signal

This signal is emitted when the application is about to quit the main event loop, e.g.

when the event loop level drops to zero. This may happen either after a call to quit() from inside the application or when the user shuts down the entire desktop session.

The signal is particularly useful if your application has to do some last-second cleanup. Note that no user interaction is possible in this state.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

applicationDirPath()

QString QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath ( )

static

Returns the directory that contains the application executable.

For example, if you have installed Qt in the {C:\Qt} directory, and you run the {regexp} example, this function will return "C:/Qt/examples/tools/regexp".

On \macos and iOS this will point to the directory actually containing the executable, which may be inside an application bundle (if the application is bundled).

Warning

On Linux, this function will try to get the path from the {/proc} file system. If that fails, it assumes that {argv[0]} contains the absolute file name of the executable. The function also assumes that the current directory has not been changed by the application.

arguments()

QStringList QCoreApplication::arguments ( )

static

Since

4.1

Returns the list of command-line arguments.

Usually arguments().at(0) is the program name, arguments().at(1) is the first argument, and arguments().last() is the last argument. See the note below about Windows.

Calling this function is slow - you should store the result in a variable when parsing the command line.

Warning

On Unix, this list is built from the argc and argv parameters passed to the constructor in the main() function. The string-data in argv is interpreted using QString::fromLocal8Bit(); hence it is not possible to pass, for example, Japanese command line arguments on a system that runs in a Latin1 locale. Most modern Unix systems do not have this limitation, as they are Unicode-based.

On Windows, the list is built from the argc and argv parameters only if modified argv/argc parameters are passed to the constructor. In that case, encoding problems might occur.

Otherwise, the arguments() are constructed from the return value of \l{https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/processenv/nf-processenv-getcommandlinea}{GetCommandLine()}. As a result of this, the string given by arguments().at(0) might not be the program name on Windows, depending on how the application was started.

exec()

int QCoreApplication::exec ( )

static

Enters the main event loop and waits until exit() is called.

Returns the value that was passed to exit() (which is 0 if exit() is called via quit()).

It is necessary to call this function to start event handling. The main event loop receives events from the window system and dispatches these to the application widgets.

To make your application perform idle processing (by executing a special function whenever there are no pending events), use a QTimer with 0 timeout. More advanced idle processing schemes can be achieved using processEvents().

We recommend that you connect clean-up code to the \l{QCoreApplication::}{aboutToQuit()} signal, instead of putting it in your application's {main()} function because on some platforms the exec() call may not return. For example, on Windows when the user logs off, the system terminates the process after Qt closes all top-level windows. Hence, there is no guarantee that the application will have time to exit its event loop and execute code at the end of the {main()} function after the exec() call.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

exit

void QCoreApplication::exit ( int  returnCode = 0 )

staticslot

Tells the application to exit with a return code.

After this function has been called, the application leaves the main event loop and returns from the call to exec(). The exec() function returns returnCode. If the event loop is not running, this function does nothing.

By convention, a returnCode of 0 means success, and any non-zero value indicates an error.

It's good practice to always connect signals to this slot using a \l{Qt::}{QueuedConnection}. If a signal connected (non-queued) to this slot is emitted before control enters the main event loop (such as before "int main" calls \l{QCoreApplication::}{exec()}), the slot has no effect and the application never exits. Using a queued connection ensures that the slot will not be invoked until after control enters the main event loop.

Note that unlike the C library function of the same name, this function does return to the caller – it is event processing that stops.

Note also that this function is not thread-safe. It should be called only from the main thread (the thread that the QCoreApplication object is processing events on). To ask the application to exit from another thread, either use QCoreApplication::quit() or instead call this function from the main thread with QMetaMethod::invokeMethod().

installNativeEventFilter()

void QCoreApplication::installNativeEventFilter

(

QAbstractNativeEventFilter *

filterObj

)

Installs an event filter filterObj for all native events received by the application in the main thread.

The event filter filterObj receives events via its \l {QAbstractNativeEventFilter::}{nativeEventFilter()} function, which is called for all native events received in the main thread.

The QAbstractNativeEventFilter::nativeEventFilter() function should return true if the event should be filtered, i.e. stopped. It should return false to allow normal Qt processing to continue: the native event can then be translated into a QEvent and handled by the standard Qt \l{QEvent} {event} filtering, e.g. QObject::installEventFilter().

If multiple event filters are installed, the filter that was installed last is activated first.

Note

The filter function set here receives native messages, i.e. MSG or XCB event structs.

Native event filters will be disabled in the application when the Qt::AA_PluginApplication attribute is set.

For maximum portability, you should always try to use QEvent and QObject::installEventFilter() whenever possible.

Here is the call graph for this function:

installTranslator()

bool QCoreApplication::installTranslator ( QTranslator *  translationFile )

static

Adds the translation file translationFile to the list of translation files to be used for translations.

Multiple translation files can be installed. Translations are searched for in the reverse order in which they were installed, so the most recently installed translation file is searched first and the first translation file installed is searched last. The search stops as soon as a translation containing a matching string is found.

Installing or removing a QTranslator, or changing an installed QTranslator generates a \l{QEvent::LanguageChange}{LanguageChange} event for the QCoreApplication instance. A QApplication instance will propagate the event to all toplevel widgets, where a reimplementation of changeEvent can re-translate the user interface by passing user-visible strings via the tr() function to the respective property setters. User-interface classes generated by Qt Designer provide a retranslateUi() function that can be called.

The function returns true on success and false on failure.

Note

QCoreApplication does not take ownership of translationFile.

notify()

bool QCoreApplication::notify ( QObject *  receiver, QEvent *  event  )

virtual

Sends event to receiver: {receiver}->event(event).

Returns the value that is returned from the receiver's event handler. Note that this function is called for all events sent to any object in any thread.

For certain types of events (e.g. mouse and key events), the event will be propagated to the receiver's parent and so on up to the top-level object if the receiver is not interested in the event (i.e., it returns false).

There are five different ways that events can be processed; reimplementing this virtual function is just one of them. All five approaches are listed below: \list 1

• Reimplementing \l {QWidget::}{paintEvent()}, \l {QWidget::}{mousePressEvent()} and so on. This is the most common, easiest, and least powerful way.

• Reimplementing this function. This is very powerful, providing complete control; but only one subclass can be active at a time.

• Installing an event filter on QCoreApplication::instance(). Such an event filter is able to process all events for all widgets, so it's just as powerful as reimplementing notify(); furthermore, it's possible to have more than one application-global event filter. Global event filters even see mouse events for \l{QWidget::isEnabled()}{disabled widgets}. Note that application event filters are only called for objects that live in the main thread.

• Reimplementing QObject::event() (as QWidget does). If you do this you get Tab key presses, and you get to see the events before any widget-specific event filters.

• Installing an event filter on the object. Such an event filter gets all the events, including Tab and Shift+Tab key press events, as long as they do not change the focus widget. \endlist

{Future direction:} This function will not be called for objects that live outside the main thread in Qt 6. Applications that need that functionality should find other solutions for their event inspection needs in the meantime. The change may be extended to the main thread, causing this function to be deprecated.

Warning

If you override this function, you must ensure all threads that process events stop doing so before your application object begins destruction. This includes threads started by other libraries that you may be using, but does not apply to Qt's own threads.

postEvent()

void QCoreApplication::postEvent ( QObject *  receiver, QEvent *  event, int  priority = Qt::NormalEventPriority  )

static

Since

4.3

Adds the event event, with the object receiver as the receiver of the event, to an event queue and returns immediately.

The event must be allocated on the heap since the post event queue will take ownership of the event and delete it once it has been posted. It is {not safe} to access the event after it has been posted.

When control returns to the main event loop, all events that are stored in the queue will be sent using the notify() function.

Events are sorted in descending priority order, i.e. events with a high priority are queued before events with a lower priority. The priority can be any integer value, i.e. between INT_MAX and INT_MIN, inclusive; see Qt::EventPriority for more details. Events with equal priority will be processed in the order posted.

Processes pending events for the calling thread untile deadline has expired, or until there are no more events to process, whichever happens first.

Use of this function is discouraged. Instead, prefer to move long operations out of the GUI thread into an auxiliary one and to completely avoid nested event loop processing. If event processing is really necessary, consider using \l QEventLoop instead.

Calling this function processes events only for the calling thread.

Note

Unlike the \l{QCoreApplication::processEvents(QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlags flags)}{processEvents()} overload, this function also processes events that are posted while the function runs.

All events that were queued before the timeout will be processed, however long it takes.

processEvents() [3/3]

Processes some pending events for the calling thread according to the specified flags.

Use of this function is discouraged. Instead, prefer to move long operations out of the GUI thread into an auxiliary one and to completely avoid nested event loop processing. If event processing is really necessary, consider using \l QEventLoop instead.

In the event that you are running a local loop which calls this function continuously, without an event loop, the \l{QEvent::DeferredDelete}{DeferredDelete} events will not be processed. This can affect the behaviour of widgets, e.g. QToolTip, that rely on \l{QEvent::DeferredDelete}{DeferredDelete} events to function properly. An alternative would be to call \l{QCoreApplication::sendPostedEvents()}{sendPostedEvents()} from within that local loop.

Calling this function processes events only for the calling thread, and returns after all available events have been processed. Available events are events queued before the function call. This means that events that are posted while the function runs will be queued until a later round of event processing.

quit

void QCoreApplication::quit ( )

staticslot

\threadsafe

Asks the application to quit.

The request may be ignored if the application prevents the quit, for example if one of its windows can't be closed. The application can affect this by handling the QEvent::Quit event on the application level, or QEvent::Close events for the individual windows.

If the quit is not interrupted the application will exit with return code 0 (success).

To exit the application without a chance of being interrupted, call exit() directly. Note that method is not thread-safe.

It's good practice to always connect signals to this slot using a \l{Qt::}{QueuedConnection}. If a signal connected (non-queued) to this slot is emitted before control enters the main event loop (such as before "int main" calls \l{QCoreApplication::}{exec()}), the slot has no effect and the application never exits. Using a queued connection ensures that the slot will not be invoked until after control enters the main event loop.

Example:

QPushButton *quitButton = new QPushButton("Quit");
connect(quitButton, &QPushButton::clicked, &app, &QCoreApplication::quit, Qt::QueuedConnection);

{Thread-safety note}: this function may be called from any thread to thread-safely cause the currently-running main application loop to exit. However, thread-safety is not guaranteed if the QCoreApplication object is being destroyed at the same time.

setSetuidAllowed()

void QCoreApplication::setSetuidAllowed ( bool  allow )

static

Since

5.3

Allows the application to run setuid on UNIX platforms if allow is true.

If allow is false (the default) and Qt detects the application is running with an effective user id different than the real user id, the application will be aborted when a QCoreApplication instance is created.

Qt is not an appropriate solution for setuid programs due to its large attack surface. However some applications may be required to run in this manner for historical reasons. This flag will prevent Qt from aborting the application when this is detected, and must be set before a QCoreApplication instance is created.

Note

It is strongly recommended not to enable this option since it introduces security risks. If this application does enable the flag and starts child processes, it should drop the privileges as early as possible by calling {setuid(2)} for itself, or at the latest by using the QProcess::UnixProcessParameters::ResetIds flag.

translate()

QString QCoreApplication::translate ( const char *  context, const char *  sourceText, const char *  disambiguation = nullptr, int  n = -1  )

static

\threadsafe

Returns the translation text for sourceText, by querying the installed translation files. The translation files are searched from the most recently installed file back to the first installed file.

QObject::tr() provides this functionality more conveniently.

context is typically a class name (e.g., "MyDialog") and sourceText is either English text or a short identifying text.

disambiguation is an identifying string, for when the same sourceText is used in different roles within the same context. By default, it is \nullptr.

See the \l QTranslator and \l QObject::tr() documentation for more information about contexts, disambiguations and comments.

n is used in conjunction with n to support plural forms. See QObject::tr() for details.

If none of the translation files contain a translation for sourceText in context, this function returns a QString equivalent of sourceText.

This function is not virtual. You can use alternative translation techniques by subclassing \l QTranslator.

qAddPostRoutine()

void qAddPostRoutine ( QtCleanUpFunction  ptr )

related

\macro Q_COREAPP_STARTUP_FUNCTION(QtStartUpFunction ptr)

Since

5.1

\reentrant

Adds a global function that will be called from the QCoreApplication constructor. This macro is normally used to initialize libraries for program-wide functionality, without requiring the application to call into the library for initialization.

The function specified by ptr should take no arguments and should return nothing. For example:

// Called once QCoreApplication exists
static void preRoutineMyDebugTool()
{
    MyDebugTool* tool = new MyDebugTool(QCoreApplication::instance());
    QCoreApplication::instance()->installEventFilter(tool);
}
 
Q_COREAPP_STARTUP_FUNCTION(preRoutineMyDebugTool)

Note that the startup function will run at the end of the QCoreApplication constructor, before any GUI initialization. If GUI code is required in the function, use a timer (or a queued invocation) to perform the initialization later on, from the event loop.

If QCoreApplication is deleted and another QCoreApplication is created, the startup function will be invoked again.

Note

This macro is not suitable for use in library code that is then statically linked into an application since the function may not be called at all due to being eliminated by the linker.

\threadsafe

Adds a global routine that will be called from the QCoreApplication destructor. This function is normally used to add cleanup routines for program-wide functionality.

The cleanup routines are called in the reverse order of their addition.

The function specified by ptr should take no arguments and should return nothing. For example:

static int *global_ptr = nullptr;
 
static void cleanup_ptr()
{
    delete [] global_ptr;
    global_ptr = nullptr;
}
 
void init_ptr()
{
    global_ptr = new int[100];      // allocate data
    qAddPostRoutine(cleanup_ptr);   // delete later
}

Note that for an application- or module-wide cleanup, qAddPostRoutine() is often not suitable. For example, if the program is split into dynamically loaded modules, the relevant module may be unloaded long before the QCoreApplication destructor is called. In such cases, if using qAddPostRoutine() is still desirable, qRemovePostRoutine() can be used to prevent a routine from being called by the QCoreApplication destructor. For example, if that routine was called before the module was unloaded.

For modules and libraries, using a reference-counted initialization manager or Qt's parent-child deletion mechanism may be better. Here is an example of a private class that uses the parent-child mechanism to call a cleanup function at the right time:

class MyPrivateInitStuff : public QObject
{
public:
    static MyPrivateInitStuff *initStuff(QObject *parent)
    {
        if (!p)
            p = new MyPrivateInitStuff(parent);
        return p;
    }
 
    ~MyPrivateInitStuff()
    {
        // cleanup goes here
    }
 
private:
    MyPrivateInitStuff(QObject *parent)
        : QObject(parent)
    {
        // initialization goes here
    }
 
    MyPrivateInitStuff *p;
};

By selecting the right parent object, this can often be made to clean up the module's data at the right moment.

Note

This function has been thread-safe since Qt 5.10.

\macro Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS(context)

The Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS() macro declares and implements the translation function tr() with this signature:

static inline QString tr(const char *sourceText,
                         const char *comment = nullptr);

This macro is useful if you want to use QObject::tr() in classes that don't inherit from QObject.

Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS() must appear at the very top of the class definition (before the first {public:} or {protected:}). For example:

class MyMfcView : public CView
{
    Q_DECLARE_TR_FUNCTIONS(MyMfcView)
 
public:
    MyMfcView();
    ...
};

The context parameter is normally the class name, but it can be any text.

applicationName

QString QCoreApplication::applicationName

readwrite

the name of this application

The application name is used in various Qt classes and modules, most prominently in \l{QSettings} when it is constructed using the default constructor. Other uses are in formatted logging output (see \l{qSetMessagePattern()}), in output by \l{QCommandLineParser}, in \l{QTemporaryDir} and \l{QTemporaryFile} default paths, and in some file locations of \l{QStandardPaths}. \l{Qt D-Bus}, \l{Accessibility}, and the XCB platform integration make use of the application name, too.

If not set, the application name defaults to the executable name.

\table \header

• Platform
• Source \row
• Windows (classic desktop)
• PRODUCTVERSION parameter of the VERSIONINFO resource \row
• macOS, iOS, tvOS, watchOS
• CFBundleVersion property of the information property list \row
• Android
• android:versionName property of the AndroidManifest.xml manifest element \endtable
