Status
------

This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for KDE Frameworks, kwin and Martin Gräßlin.


Repository: kwindowsystem


Description
-------

When using KWindowInfo from a thread other than the main application thread, the application fails on an assert triggered by creating a QWidget in another thread. This is due to NETEventFilter being a QWidget. This patch addresses the issue by using a QObject to create the NETEventFilter, which is itself first moved to the main application thread.
