Introduction to Qt / QML (Part 41) - Connecting Signals to Lambda Expressions
Did you know that you can connect a QObject signal to a lambda function, or to any free function or function object, for what it's worth? It's extremely convenient, but it comes with its own set of "gotchas" that we must understand. In this video we'll explain the syntax and reason behind the good use cases of connecting to a lambda function instead of connecting to a "regular" slot.

About the host:
This video is presented by Jesper Pedersen, who started with Qt back when Qt was widgets only and the version was 1.44, which gives him 21 years of experience with Qt. Since 2000 he has taught almost 100 Qt classes, ranging from Qt Widgets to QML. Heck, Jesper even taught a few classes on QTopia Core — Trolltech's initial attempt at creating a phone stack. Today Jesper holds a fancy business title, but that doesn't prevent him from coding both in his job and in his spare time.
