Thanks for the reply.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but runnerManager->jobDone only calls matchesChanged signal 
when no job is left.

That's the code from runnerManager, line 194

if (searchJobs.isEmpty() && context.matches().isEmpty()) {
    // we finished our run, and there are no valid matches, and so no
    // signal will have been sent out. so we need to emit the signal
    // ourselves here
    emit q->matchesChanged(context.matches());
}

Am i misunderstood ?
