[Qt-interest] QTranslator / QThread

[GZimmermann at t-systems.com]

Hello all,
 
I've a problem concerning using translators in threads. 
The program I've written makes extensive use of threads for background processing. The threads send status messages to the main thread via the standard signal / slot mechanisms. So far so good. The thing is, I can't get the program to actually apply the translations I've provided (via app.installTranslator). Only strings in the main thread are translated, never those generated in the worker threads. 
So: translation basically does work, but not for threads (as was to be expected, I'm sure). I couldn't find any hints in the documentation; I've tried to load a translator within the background threads and then using translator.translate() instead of tr(), but this resulted in an empty string, probably because I was to dumb to set the context correctly. 
Is there any method that should work, even for dumb people like me?
 
 
Regards
 
Gerrit
