我如何使用 PyQt 线程长时间休眠？
How do I sleep for long periods with PyQt threads?
我有一些特定的对象需要运行以特定的不断变化的时间间隔执行特定的功能，一次又一次，直到他们决定完成。
例如，一个对象可能需要等待 30 秒，运行，等待 60 秒，运行，等待 10 秒，运行...你明白了，这可能适用于 30-120 个不同的对象，运行具有完全相同的功能。
我在想，只要有一个按确切时间间隔休眠的函数就可以解决我的问题，但是，如果我错了请纠正我，我记得线程池 只能 运行 在任何给定时间都有一定数量的线程（对我来说是 12 个）。 如何绕过这个限制？
class Thing(object):
def getCurrentPeriod(self):
return random.randint(5, 30) # Some ever changing period of time
def refresh(self):
doThings() # A long running task that is disk and network intensive
def waitRefresh(self):
period = self.getCurrentPeriod()
time.sleep(period) # Wait that period out
self.refresh()
return self.needRefresh()
# Boolean if it needs to restart - Not sure about how to reschedule,
# or specifically where to connect the worker emit when it finishes
# to make sure this *specific* Thing obj gets it's waitRefresh func called again.
class App(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(MainWindow, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.threadpool = QThreadPool()
# Add initial objects to pool (other portions of app may add more over time)
for thing in self.acquireThings():
worker = Worker(thing.waitRefresh)
self.threadpool.start(worker)
不包括 WorkerSignals class 和 QRunnable subclass，this 示例包括我通常做的。该示例正在解决相同的问题，但是（很可能）效率低下。
编辑：New example 以及 time.sleep 如何不暂停线程并允许其他线程工作的完整工作示例。我觉得 async 可能是唯一的实现方式，但是否有快速修复方法，让我不必更改整个应用程序？
Here's what it looks like when you try to sleep more than 12 threads.
当我决定实际尝试 QTimer class 时，最终的解决方案出现了。也许有更多优化的解决方案，但这个似乎符合所有复选框，即使它简单得令人担忧。

当一个线程被请求时，一个定时器被创建并且 singleShot 在一个将它添加到线程池的额外函数上被触发。此线程池最多可以处理 12 个连续刷新 'refreshing' 线程，并且信号允许 GUI 在发现更改时进行更新。
数以千计的 'Thread' 对象可能正在等待，似乎 singleShot 能够在需要时将它们添加到池中。
信号有助于区分线程何时为 sleeping、working 和 active（但 inactive 线程对象会立即被删除）。
我能想到的关于这个程序的唯一警告是：
1) QThread 实现能打败它吗？
2) 一旦 QTimer 函数执行并触发，QTimer 会发生什么？它们会得到正确的 GC，还是会在后台消耗资源？
