+    Returns the meta-method index of the signal that called the currently
+    executing slot, which is a member of the class returned by sender().
+    If called outside of a slot activated by a signal, -1 is returned.
+
+    For signals with default parameters, this function will always return
+    the index with all parameters, regardless of which was used with
+    connect(). For example, the signal \c {destroyed(QObject *obj = 0)}
+    will have two different indexes (with and without the parameter), but
+    this function will always return the index with a parameter. This does
+    not apply when overloading signals with different parameters.
+
+    \warning This function violates the object-oriented principle of
+    modularity. However, getting access to the signal index might be useful
+    when many signals are connected to a single slot.
+
+    \warning The return value of this function is not valid when the slot
+    is called via a Qt::DirectConnection from a thread different from this
+    object's thread. Do not use this function in this type of scenario.
