[PyQt] postEvent(), blocking processEvents() and QMessageBox.exec_

[Carl Wolff]

Hello,

in my application I am posting (earlier recorded) events using the
postEvents() call. After each postEvent() call I always call
processEvents() to let the application process the event.

When the logic of my app shows a modal dialog (as a result of the posted
event) using the following snippet:
msg = PyQt4.QtGui.QMessageBox(self)

...

return msg.exec_() == PyQt4.QtGui.QMessageBox.Yes

then the processEvents() call blocks.

Can somebody give some hints here, what the cause is?

Best regards

Carl.
