当主线程无限循环运行时，服务器未收到用QTcpSocket :: write写入的字节吗？

Question

I am working on an application, which interacts with server.

while starting, it is loading some data from database, when database size is large then application is running in very long loop let say i have 10 lac records in db and loop will iterate 10 lac times.

After a regular interval of time (set by user) let say 1 seconds, my application is sending heartbeat message to server in different thread.

In normal cases, it is working fine but when application runs in long loop, heartbeat message has not been received by server although written bytes returned by QTcpSocket::write() are same what i am writing (successful), but tcpDump is not showing any byte received.

i have used

tcpSocket->setSocketOption(QAbstractSocket::LowDelayOption , 1); 
tcpSocket->setSocketOption(QAbstractSocket::KeepAliveOption , 600);

Try adding processEvents() inside your loop (let's say every 1000th cycle or every 100ms) to keep your application responsive. Of course, it's a sign of bad design if you encounter such problems. Consider re-design you application to use multiple threads, ie the main thread and a worker thread for long operations (your loop). More about thread support on Qt can be found here .
