[Interest] QNAM::get() spawns three processess and opens file descriptors which I am unable to close

[gsmember gs]

Hello,I managed to find the "bug".Somewhere in my code I initialized the class posted in the initial mail multiple times. So the QNAM was instanciated multiple times as well.That caused the issue. My mistake.
Thank you for your assistance.

I changed my application to do nothing after the first get() call. And thererfore there I saw 3 running threads beside the main thread. I will provide a sample, I was a bit busy in the past week.
 
Thank you

Those are threads. Don't kill them.

Please show us a small, self-contained, compilable example of the problem. I
have never heard of file descriptor leakage in Qt.

Those are pipes. They aren't related to QNAM, since QNAM doesn't use pipes.
 
It could be because of the threads. Each thread that you start consumes 2 file
descriptors in the form of pipes (until Qt 5.1 or until a recent enough glib2
in your system, then it's only one). But you said that the number of threads
running was only 3, so that doesn't explain.
