problem with QLocalSocket sending continues data to QLocalServer - qt

Question

I'm trying to send some data from QLocalSocket to QLocalSever in a loop. Sever only gets the first data and not receiving subsequent data, but if I introduce 1 mec delay between each call from the client then the server starts to receive everything. Please check out the below Client & Server code.
client.cpp
#include "client.h"
#include "QDataStream"
#include <QTest>
TestClient::TestClient() : m_socket{new QLocalSocket(this)}{
m_socket->connectToServer("TestServer");
if (m_socket->waitForConnected(1000)) {
qDebug("socket Connected!");
}
connect(m_socket, &QLocalSocket::readyRead, this, &TestClient::onNewData);
}
void TestClient::onNewData() {
qCritical() << "data received from server";
}
void TestClient::sendDataToServer() {
QByteArray block;
QDataStream out(&block, QIODevice::WriteOnly);
out.setVersion(QDataStream::Qt_5_10);
QString testString = "test data";
out << quint32(testString.size());
out << testString;
m_socket->write(block);
m_socket->flush();
}
void TestClient::startClient() {
for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
//QTest::qWait(1); //works if I uncomment this line
sendDataToServer();
}
}
server.cpp
#include "server.h"
TestServer::TestServer() : m_server{new QLocalServer(this)} {
QLocalServer::removeServer("TestServer");
if (!m_server->listen("TestServer")) {
qCritical() << "couldn't connect to server";
}
connect(m_server, &QLocalServer::newConnection, this, &TestServer::onNewConnection);
}
void TestServer::onNewConnection() {
m_socket = m_server->nextPendingConnection();
connect(m_socket, &QLocalSocket::readyRead, this,
&TestServer::onNewData);
connect(m_socket, &QLocalSocket::disconnected, m_socket,
&QLocalSocket::deleteLater);
}
void TestServer::onNewData() {
QLocalSocket* client = qobject_cast<QLocalSocket*>(sender());
client->readAll();
qCritical() << "data read by server";
}
from the qt doc, it's stated that
readyRead() is not emitted recursively; if you reenter the event loop
or call waitForReadyRead() inside a slot connected to the readyRead()
signal, the signal will not be reemitted (although waitForReadyRead()
may still return true).
so is this my problem? adding timer is the only solution here?
