postDelayedEvent() and cancelDelayedEvent() are marked as thread-safe in the documentation. Unfortunately, they didn't actually work when called from another thread; they just produced some warnings: QObject::startTimer: timers cannot be started from another thread QObject::killTimer: timers cannot be stopped from another thread As the warnings indicate, the issue was that postDelayedEvent() (cancelDelayedEvent()) unconditionally called QObject::startTimer() (stopTimer()), i.e. without considering which thread the function was called from. If the function is called from a different thread, the actual starting/stopping of the associated timer is now done from the correct thread, by asynchronously calling a private slot on the state machine. This also means that the raw timer id can no longer be used as the id of the delayed event, since a valid event id must be returned before the timer has started. The state machine now manages those ids itself (using a QFreeList, just like startTimer() and killTimer() do), and also keeps a mapping from timer id to event id once the timer has been started. This is inherently more complex than before, but at least the API should work as advertised/intended now.

README
This directory contains autotests and benchmarks based on QTestlib. In order
to run the autotests reliably, you need to configure a desktop to match the
test environment that these tests are written for.
Linux X11:
* The user must be logged in to an active desktop; you can't run the
autotests without a valid DISPLAY that allows X11 connections.
* The tests are run against a KDE3 or KDE4 desktop.
* Window manager uses "click to focus", and not "focus follows mouse". Many
tests move the mouse cursor around and expect this to not affect focus
and activation.
* Disable "click to activate", i.e., when a window is opened, the window
manager should automatically activate it (give it input focus) and not
wait for the user to click the window.
