+ \class QtSingleApplication qtsingleapplication.h
+ \brief The QtSingleApplication class provides an API to detect and
+ communicate with running instances of an application.
+
+ This class allows you to create applications where only one
+ instance should be running at a time. I.e., if the user tries to
+ launch another instance, the already running instance will be
+ activated instead. Another usecase is a client-server system,
+ where the first started instance will assume the role of server,
+ and the later instances will act as clients of that server.
+
+ By default, the full path of the executable file is used to
+ determine whether two processes are instances of the same
+ application. You can also provide an explicit identifier string
+ that will be compared instead.
+
+ The application should create the QtSingleApplication object early
+ in the startup phase, and call isRunning() or sendMessage() to
+ find out if another instance of this application is already
+ running. Startup parameters (e.g. the name of the file the user
+ wanted this new instance to open) can be passed to the running
+ instance in the sendMessage() function.
+
+ If isRunning() or sendMessage() returns false, it means that no
+ other instance is running, and this instance has assumed the role
+ as the running instance. The application should continue with the
+ initialization of the application user interface before entering
+ the event loop with exec(), as normal. The messageReceived()
+ signal will be emitted when the application receives messages from
+ another instance of the same application.
+
+ If isRunning() or sendMessage() returns true, another instance is
+ already running, and the application should terminate or enter
+ client mode.
+
+ If a message is received it might be helpful to the user to raise
+ the application so that it becomes visible. To facilitate this,
+ QtSingleApplication provides the setActivationWindow() function
+ and the activateWindow() slot.
+
+ Here's an example that shows how to convert an existing
+ application to use QtSingleApplication. It is very simple and does
+ not make use of all QtSingleApplication's functionality (see the
+ examples for that).
+
+ \code
+ // Original
+ int main(int argc, char **argv)
+ {
+ QApplication app(argc, argv);
+
+ MyMainWidget mmw;
+
+ mmw.show();
+ return app.exec();
+ }
+
+ // Single instance
+ int main(int argc, char **argv)
+ {
+ QtSingleApplication app(argc, argv);
+
+ if (app.isRunning())
+ return 0;
+
+ MyMainWidget mmw;
+
+ app.setActivationWindow(&mmw);
+
+ mmw.show();
+ return app.exec();
+ }
+ \endcode
+
+ Once this QtSingleApplication instance is destroyed(for example,
+ when the user quits), when the user next attempts to run the
+ application this instance will not, of course, be encountered. The
+ next instance to call isRunning() or sendMessage() will assume the
+ role as the new running instance.
+
+ For console (non-GUI) applications, QtSingleCoreApplication may be
+ used instead of this class, to avoid the dependency on the QtGui
+ library.
