//! This is a private class used to convey the TRenderer::startRendering

//! methods into Qt queued slots. This is necessary since these methods implicitly

//! perform event processing, which could cause trouble in case they are invoked from

//! events which must respect a strict ordering.

//! \n \n

//! For example, suppose that a render must be invoked upon a mousePressEvent,

//! and that such event must have been completely processed before the corrispondant

//! mouseReleaseEvent is invoked - calling the startRendering method *directly* by

//! the mousePressEvent may cause the mouseReleaseEvent to be processed before the

//! former's end.
