/**
 * \brief Class for receiving signals.
 *
 * This is a convenience class for receiving signals when it is not worth
 * the effort, or overly complicated to introduce a dedicated slot.
 *
 * Use as follows:
 * \code
 * SignalReceiver sr;
 * sr.connect(some_obj, TQT_SIGNAL(someSignal()), TQT_SLOT(slot()));
 * <do something with some_obj> ...
 * if (sr.receivedSignal()) { // yes, signal was received
 * }
 * \endcode
 *
 * It is not possible to discriminate between different signals. Hence,
 * use different signal receiver instances for different signals.
