The concept is that controls also known as GUI widget widgets can send signals containing event information e.g. the text toto was selected, the scrollbar has been adjusted to value 37 which can be received by other controls using special functions known as slots. The signal slot system fits well with the way Graphical User Interface s are designed. Similarly, the signal slot system can be used for asynchronous I O including sockets, pipes, serial devices, etc. event notification or to associate timeout events with appropriate object instances and methods or functions.
