Event objects contain event parameters. <p> <p> TQt's main event loop (<a href="ntqapplication.html#exec">TQApplication::exec</a>()) fetches native window system events from the event queue, translates them into TQEvents and sends the translated events to TQObjects. <p> In general, events come from the underlying window system (<a href="#spontaneous">spontaneous</a>() returns TRUE) but it is also possible to manually send events using <a href="ntqapplication.html#sendEvent">TQApplication::sendEvent</a>() and <a href="ntqapplication.html#postEvent">TQApplication::postEvent</a>() (spontaneous() returns FALSE). <p> TQObjects receive events by having their <a href="tqobject.html#event">TQObject::event</a>() function called. The function can be reimplemented in subclasses to customize event handling and add additional event types; <a href="tqwidget.html#event">TQWidget::event</a>() is a notable example. By default, events are dispatched to event handlers like <a href="tqobject.html#timerEvent">TQObject::timerEvent</a>() and <a href="tqwidget.html#mouseMoveEvent">TQWidget::mouseMoveEvent</a>(). <a href="tqobject.html#installEventFilter">TQObject::installEventFilter</a>() allows an object to intercept events destined for another object. <p> The basic TQEvent contains only an event type parameter. Subclasses of TQEvent contain additional parameters that describe the particular event. <p> <p>See also <a href="tqobject.html#event">TQObject::event</a>(), <a href="tqobject.html#installEventFilter">TQObject::installEventFilter</a>(), <a href="tqwidget.html#event">TQWidget::event</a>(), <a href="ntqapplication.html#sendEvent">TQApplication::sendEvent</a>(), <a href="ntqapplication.html#postEvent">TQApplication::postEvent</a>(), <a href="ntqapplication.html#processEvents">TQApplication::processEvents</a>(), <a href="environment.html">Environment Classes</a>, and <a href="events.html">Event Classes</a>. <hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2> <h3 class=fn><a name="Type-enum"></a>TQEvent::Type</h3> <p> This enum type defines the valid event types in TQt.
