Displaying the fractal with MandelbrotWidget
Here we are, the Mandelbrot algorithm is done and the multi-threading system is ready to compute complex fractals over all your CPU cores. We can now create the widget that will convert all JobResult
to display a pretty picture. Create a new C++ class called MandelbrotWidget
. For this widget, we will handle the painting ourselves. Thus, we do not need any .ui
Qt Designer Form
file. Let's begin with the MandelbrotWidget.h
file:
#include <memory> #include <QWidget> #include <QPoint> #include <QThread> #include <QList> #include "MandelbrotCalculator.h" class QResizeEvent; class MandelbrotWidget : public QWidget { Q_OBJECT public: explicit MandelbrotWidget(QWidget *parent = 0); ~MandelbrotWidget(); private: MandelbrotCalculator mMandelbrotCalculator; QThread mThreadCalculator; double mScaleFactor; QPoint mLastMouseMovePosition; ...
