TCP/IP localhost communcation issue











up vote

I am using Qt and QTcpSocket class to develop two console applications communicating each other via socket in localhost on the same machine. This has to be done via socket for backward compatibility.



During the execution, a third application requires a lot of CPU, which usage goes quickly to 100% for some seconds. I can't avoid this behavior. In this situation, the communication gets a delay (i.e. the string sent from the application A is received by the application B many hundreds of ms later).



Obviously, the socket runs in a specific thread and I set the thread's priority to TimeCritical:



QThread::currentThread()->setPriority(QThread::TimeCriticalPriority);


Do you know how to solve this problem?
Thanks

  • which OS do you use? setPriority() is not supported on linux doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/qthread.html#setPriority

  • On Linux you may run your program with ‚nice‘, on windows you can set the execution execution rights, if you have an admin account: support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/110853/…
