[Qt-interest] QTimer issue

[Michael S]

Good day all,

I am writing a service type application that schedules its own events. I use the QTimer object to program the events and connect the timeout() signal to a slot that executes my logic. Unfortunately QTimer::start takes an int, which limits me to about 24 days, thus preventing me to scheduling a monthly event. I understand that QTimer was probably not intended for this type of usage, but having a long (or uint) argument type for start() would have been helpful. In any case, what would be the easiest solution?

Thanks,
Michael
