Hi all, The reference says, "The changed signal will be emitted in the thread-default main context of the thread that the monitor was created in." Then if I create a file monitor in a background thread, is it necessary to enter the event loop in that thread in order to catch the changed signal? My background thread is mainly used to carry out background tasks. I don't want to use an event loop in it. Any ideas?
