Subject: Allow connect to functors with less parameters than the signal
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=029cc40c2ac2f6f1013020f6af5e63b46a7a8317;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fqtbase.git

Allow connect to functors with less parameters than the signal

Before, the functor slot (or lambda expression) had to have the same amount
of arguments as the signal.
This shown to be a big problem to be able to connect to signals that had
a QPrivateSlot.

This implementation use the type of the operator() of the functor to
know how many arguments we have.
As a bonus, we also can check the arguments in a static assert.

The test comes from https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,38703
But this patch also works without variadic template

If the compiler does not support decltype, we workaround the lack of it
by using another level of indirection.
