<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
The TQSignal class can be used to send signals for classes
that don't inherit <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>.
<p>
<p> If you want to send signals from a class that does not inherit
TQObject, you can create an internal TQSignal object to emit the
signal. You must also provide a function that connects the signal
to an outside object slot. This is how we have implemented
signals in the <a href="ntqmenudata.html">TQMenuData</a> class, which is not a TQObject.
<p> In general, we recommend inheriting TQObject instead. TQObject
provides much more functionality.
<p> You can set a single <a href="ntqvariant.html">TQVariant</a> parameter for the signal with
<a href="#setValue">setValue</a>().
<p> Note that TQObject is a <em>private</em> base class of TQSignal, i.e. you
cannot call any TQObject member functions from a TQSignal object.
<p> Example:
<pre>
#include &lt;<a href="qsignal-h.html">ntqsignal.h</a>&gt;
class MyClass
{
public:
MyClass();
~MyClass();
void doSomething();
void connect( <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a> *receiver, const char *member );
private:
TQSignal *sig;
};
MyClass::MyClass()
{
sig = new TQSignal;
}
MyClass::~MyClass()
{
delete sig;
}
void MyClass::doSomething()
{
// ... does something
sig-&gt;<a href="#activate">activate</a>(); // emits the signal
}
void MyClass::connect( <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a> *receiver, const char *member )
{
sig-&gt;<a href="#connect">connect</a>( receiver, member );
}
</pre>

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQSignal"></a>TQSignal::TQSignal ( <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )
</h3>
Constructs a signal object called <em>name</em>, with the parent object
<em>parent</em>. These arguments are passed directly to <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>.
<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQSignal"></a>TQSignal::~TQSignal ()
</h3>
Destroys the signal. All connections are removed, as is the case
with all TQObjects.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="activate"></a>TQSignal::activate ()
</h3>
<p> Emits the signal. If the platform supports <a href="ntqvariant.html">TQVariant</a> and a
parameter has been set with <a href="#setValue">setValue</a>(), this value is passed in
the signal.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="block"></a>TQSignal::block ( bool&nbsp;b )
</h3>
<b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
<p> Blocks the signal if <em>b</em> is TRUE, or unblocks the signal if <em>b</em> is FALSE.
<p> An activated signal disappears into hyperspace if it is blocked.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#isBlocked">isBlocked</a>(), <a href="#activate">activate</a>(), and <a href="ntqobject.html#blockSignals">TQObject::blockSignals</a>().
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="connect"></a>TQSignal::connect ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;receiver, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;member )
</h3>
Connects the signal to <em>member</em> in object <em>receiver</em>.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#disconnect">disconnect</a>() and <a href="ntqobject.html#connect">TQObject::connect</a>().
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="disconnect"></a>TQSignal::disconnect ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;receiver, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;member = 0 )
</h3>
Disonnects the signal from <em>member</em> in object <em>receiver</em>.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#connect">connect</a>() and <a href="ntqobject.html#disconnect">TQObject::disconnect</a>().
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isBlocked"></a>TQSignal::isBlocked () const
</h3>
<b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
<p> Returns TRUE if the signal is blocked, or FALSE if it is not blocked.
<p> The signal is not blocked by default.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#block">block</a>() and <a href="ntqobject.html#signalsBlocked">TQObject::signalsBlocked</a>().
<h3 class=fn>int <a name="parameter"></a>TQSignal::parameter () const
</h3> <b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setParameter"></a>TQSignal::setParameter ( int&nbsp;value )
</h3> <b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setValue"></a>TQSignal::setValue ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqvariant.html">TQVariant</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;value )
</h3>
Sets the signal's parameter to <em>value</em>
<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqvariant.html">TQVariant</a> <a name="value"></a>TQSignal::value () const
</h3>
Returns the signal's parameter
