+/*! \class QFutureSynchronizer
+    \since 4.4
+
+    \brief The QFutureSynchronizer class is a convenience class that simplifies
+    QFuture synchronization.
+
+    \ingroup thread
+
+    QFutureSynchronizer is a template class that simplifies synchronization of
+    one or more QFuture objects. Futures are added using the addFuture() or
+    setFuture() functions. The futures() function returns a list of futures.
+    Use clearFutures() to remove all futures from the QFutureSynchronizer.
+    
+    The waitForFinished() function waits for all futures to finish.
+    The destructor of QFutureSynchronizer calls waitForFinished(), providing
+    an easy way to ensure that all futures have finished before returning from
+    a function:
+    
+    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_corelib_concurrent_qfuturesynchronizer.cpp 0
+    
+    The behavior of waitForFinished() can be changed using the
+    setCancelOnWait() function. Calling setCancelOnWait(true) will cause
+    waitForFinished() to cancel all futures before waiting for them to finish.
+    You can query the status of the cancel-on-wait feature using the
+    cancelOnWait() function.
