Detailed Description

A thread collecting samples at regular intervals.

Continuous signals are converted into a discrete signal by collecting samples at regular intervals. A discrete signal can be displayed by a QwtPlotSeriesItem on a QwtPlot widget.

QwtSamplingThread starts a thread calling periodically sample(), to collect and store ( or emit ) a single sample.

double QwtSamplingThread::elapsed () const

Returns

Time (in ms) since the thread was started

Definition at line 62 of file qwt_sampling_thread.cpp.

double QwtSamplingThread::interval () const

Returns

Interval (in ms), between 2 calls of sample()

setInterval()

Definition at line 53 of file qwt_sampling_thread.cpp.

void QwtSamplingThread::run () [override], [protected], [virtual]

Loop collecting samples started from QThread::start()

See also

stop()

Definition at line 83 of file qwt_sampling_thread.cpp.

virtual void QwtSamplingThread::sample (double elapsed) [protected], [pure virtual]

Collect a sample

Parameters

elapsed Time since the thread was started in seconds

Note

Due to a bug in previous version elapsed was passed as seconds instead of miliseconds. To avoid breaking existing code we stay with seconds for now.

void QwtSamplingThread::setInterval (double msecs) [slot]

Change the interval (in ms), when sample() is called. The default interval is 1000.0 ( = 1s )

Parameters

msecs Interval
