\class QEventLoop
\brief The QEventLoop class provides a means of entering and leaving an event loop.
At any time, you can create a QEventLoop object and call exec()
on it to start a local event loop. From within the event loop,
calling exit() will force exec() to return.

\enum QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag
This enum controls the types of events processed by the
processEvents() functions.
\value AllEvents All events. Note that
\l{QEvent::DeferredDelete}{DeferredDelete} events are processed
specially. See QObject::deleteLater() for more details.
\value ExcludeUserInputEvents Do not process user input events,
such as ButtonPress and KeyPress. Note that the events are not
discarded; they will be delivered the next time processEvents() is
called without the ExcludeUserInputEvents flag.
\value ExcludeSocketNotifiers Do not process socket notifier
events. Note that the events are not discarded; they will be
delivered the next time processEvents() is called without the
ExcludeSocketNotifiers flag.
\value WaitForMoreEvents Wait for events if no pending events are
available.

If \a flags are specified, only events of the types allowed by

It is necessary to call this function to start event handling. The
main event loop receives events from the window system and
dispatches these to the application widgets.
Generally speaking, no user interaction can take place before
calling exec(). As a special case, modal widgets like QMessageBox
can be used before calling exec(), because modal widgets
use their own local event loop.
To make your application perform idle processing (i.e. executing a
special function whenever there are no pending events), use a
QTimer with 0 timeout. More sophisticated idle processing schemes
can be achieved using processEvents().
