[Qt-interest] QMetaObject::invokeMethod()

[Shabd Swarup V]

Because it does not return at all. I need to find out when the QAction
has finished execution of the "trigger" slot.

Please suggest in case you know of a possible way to do this.

Regards,
Shabd

Why not to just do as follows?

yourAction->trigger();
