    \class QAbstractEventDispatcher
    \inmodule QtCore
    \brief The QAbstractEventDispatcher class provides an interface to manage Qt's event queue.

    \ingroup events

    An event dispatcher receives events from the window system and other
    sources. It then sends them to the QCoreApplication or QApplication
    instance for processing and delivery. QAbstractEventDispatcher provides
    fine-grained control over event delivery.

    For simple control of event processing use
    QCoreApplication::processEvents().

    For finer control of the application's event loop, call
    instance() and call functions on the QAbstractEventDispatcher
    object that is returned. If you want to use your own instance of
    QAbstractEventDispatcher or of a QAbstractEventDispatcher
    subclass, you must install it with QCoreApplication::setEventDispatcher()
    or QThread::setEventDispatcher() \e before a default event dispatcher has
    been installed.

    The main event loop is started by calling
    QCoreApplication::exec(), and stopped by calling
    QCoreApplication::exit(). Local event loops can be created using
    QEventLoop.

    Programs that perform long operations can call processEvents()
    with a bitwise OR combination of various QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlag
    values to control which events should be delivered.

    QAbstractEventDispatcher also allows the integration of an
    external event loop with the Qt event loop.

    \fn bool QAbstractEventDispatcher::processEvents(QEventLoop::ProcessEventsFlags flags)

    Processes pending events that match \a flags until there are no
    more events to process. Returns \c true if an event was processed;
    otherwise returns \c false.

    This function is especially useful if you have a long running
    operation, and want to show its progress without allowing user
    input by using the QEventLoop::ExcludeUserInputEvents flag.

    If the QEventLoop::WaitForMoreEvents flag is set in \a flags, the
    behavior of this function is as follows:

    \list

    \li If events are available, this function returns after processing
    them.

    \li If no events are available, this function will wait until more
    are available and return after processing newly available events.

    \endlist

    If the QEventLoop::WaitForMoreEvents flag is not set in \a flags,
    and no events are available, this function will return
    immediately.

    \b{Note:} This function does not process events continuously; it
    returns after all available events are processed.

    The  \l {QAbstractNativeEventFilter::}{nativeEventFilter()} function should return true
    if the event should be filtered, (in this case, stopped). It should return false to allow
    normal Qt processing to continue: the native event can then be translated
    into a QEvent and handled by the standard Qt \l{QEvent} {event} filtering,
    e.g. QObject::installEventFilter().

    If multiple event filters are installed, the filter that was installed last
    is activated first.

    \note The filter function set here receives native messages,
    that is, MSG or XEvent structs.

    For maximum portability, you should always try to use QEvents
    and QObject::installEventFilter() whenever possible.
