BALL::SimpleDownloader Class Reference
#include <BALL/SYSTEM/simpleDownloader.h>
List of all members.
Detailed Description
This class provides an interface for synchronous downloads. It currently relies on QNetworkAccessManager and thus on the existence of a QCoreApplication object. If no global instance is existing a local application object is created. For this reason you must not use this class in any thread but the main thread if you did not create a QCoreApplication object yourself.
