     QtConcurrent::run() are \e not visible to the thread.
 
+    Note that QtConcurrent::run does not support calling overloaded functions

+//! [run-with-overload-calls]

+    The easiest workaround is to call the overloaded function through lambda:
+
+    \snippet code/src_concurrent_qtconcurrentrun.cpp 16

+    Or you can tell the compiler which overload to choose by using a
+    \c static_cast:
+
+    \snippet code/src_concurrent_qtconcurrentrun.cpp 17
