This function is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source code working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.

This function is equivalent to calling QCoreApplication::eventDispatcher()->flush(), which also is deprecated, see QAbstractEventDispatcher::flush(). Use sendPostedEvents() and processEvents() for more fine-grained control of the event loop instead.

Historically this functions was used to flush the platform-specific native event queues.
