- PyQt Tutorial
Hi All, I need to know the QT signal equivalent in c#.I analysed about the Qt Signal and slot concept,think which is similer to Delegate and events.But i have a doubt in Deleghate and events.I will mentioned the doubt by code snippet(in Qt). Qt documentation: Multi window signal slot connection. A simple multiwindow example using signals and slots. There is a MainWindow class that controls the Main Window view. @PetQter said in Slot called twice when button pressed. What exactly means 'easily lead to a double connection'? Slots named like onSOMETHING are autoconnected and if you then manually connect them via connect you get them connected twice. Signals and slots are loosely coupled: A class which emits a signal neither knows nor cares which slots receive the signal. Qt’s signals and slots mechanism ensures that if you connect a signal to a slot, the slot will be called with the signal’s parameters at the right time. Signals and slots can take any number of arguments of any type.

Unlike a console mode application, which is executed in a sequential manner, a GUI based application is event driven. Functions or methods are executed in response to user’s actions like clicking on a button, selecting an item from a collection or a mouse click etc., called events.

Widgets used to build the GUI interface act as the source of such events. Each PyQt widget, which is derived from QObject class, is designed to emit ‘signal’ in response to one or more events. The signal on its own does not perform any action. Instead, it is ‘connected’ to a ‘slot’. The slot can be any callable Python function.
In PyQt, connection between a signal and a slot can be achieved in different ways. Following are most commonly used techniques −
A more convenient way to call a slot_function, when a signal is emitted by a widget is as follows −
Suppose if a function is to be called when a button is clicked. Here, the clicked signal is to be connected to a callable function. It can be achieved in any of the following two techniques −

Example
In the following example, two QPushButton objects (b1 and b2) are added in QDialog window. We want to call functions b1_clicked() and b2_clicked() on clicking b1 and b2 respectively.
When b1 is clicked, the clicked() signal is connected to b1_clicked() function
When b2 is clicked, the clicked() signal is connected to b2_clicked() function

The above code produces the following output −
