Trouble connecting an async function to a PySide6 button signal

I'm currently working on a Python application using PySide6 for the GUI. I have a QPushButton and I want to connect its clicked signal to an asynchronous function, but I'm running into some issues.

Here's a simplified version of my code:

from PySide6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMainWindow, QPushButtonclass MainWindow(QMainWindow):    def __init__(self):        super().__init__()        self.setWindowTitle("Async Function Example")        self.login_button = QPushButton("Login", self)        self.login_button.clicked.connect(self.login_button_clicked)    async def login_button_clicked(self):        # Perform async tasks        print("test async button clicked!")app = QApplication([])window = MainWindow()window.show()app.exec()

However, when I run this code, I receive the following error:

RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'MainWindow.login_button_clicked' was never awaited  app.exec()

I understand that the error is caused by not awaiting the asynchronous function. I have tried using the await keyword before the method call when connecting the signal, but PySide6 doesn't directly support connecting asynchronous functions to signals.

I've also attempted to work around this by using a helper function or a coroutine runner, but without success.

Could someone please guide me on how to properly connect an asynchronous function to a PySide6 button signal? Is there a recommended approach or workaround for this situation? Any code examples or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!
