23 * @class KJob kjob.h KJob
24 *
25 * The base class for all jobs.
26 * For all jobs created in an application, the code looks like
27 *
28 * \code
29 * void SomeClass::methodWithAsynchronousJobCall()
30 * {
31 * KJob *job = someoperation(some parameters);
32 * connect(job, &KJob::result, this, &SomeClass::handleResult);
33 * job->start();
34 * }
35 * \endcode
36 * (other connects, specific to the job)
37 *
38 * And handleResult is usually at least:
39 *
40 * \code
41 * void SomeClass::handleResult(KJob *job)
42 * {
43 * if (job->error()) {
44 * doSomething();
45 * }
46 * }
47 * \endcode
48 *
49 * With the synchronous interface the code looks like
50 *
51 * \code
52 * void SomeClass::methodWithSynchronousJobCall()
53 * {
54 * KJob *job = someoperation( some parameters );
55 * if (!job->exec()) {
56 * // An error occurred
57 * } else {
58 * // Do something
59 * }
60 * }
61 * \endcode
62 *
63 * Subclasses must implement start(), which should trigger the execution of
64 * the job (although the work should be done asynchronously). errorString()
65 * should also be reimplemented by any subclasses that introduce new error
66 * codes.
67 *
68 * @note KJob and its subclasses are meant to be used in a fire-and-forget way.
69 * Jobs will delete themselves when they finish using deleteLater() (although
70 * this behaviour can be changed), so a job instance will disappear after the
71 * next event loop run.
