[Interest] TSAN findings in a simple QApplication/QMetaObject::invokeMethod example

[Alexandru Croitor]

Hi.

Make sure that the configure summary shown at the end mentions that tsan is enabled. Search for sanitizer.

I think the right configure line is

../qt6/configure -developer-build -opensource -nomake examples -nomake
tests -sanitize thread

doesn't help - same amount of warnings

i've double checked that my example is using my source built of Qt 6.4

my example executable shows a libtsan realtion with ldd

but not in libQt6Core.so and other qt libs in my build qtbase/libs directory - is that correct?
