I spawn a process that performs a lengthy operation, and I'd like to give visual feedback that something is happening, so I want to change the cursor to busy and restore it when I receive the QProcess::finished signal.

To set a cursor shape use QCursor::setShape() or use the QCursor constructor which takes the shape as argument, or you can use one of the predefined cursors defined in the Qt::CursorShape enum.
We can set the cursor to wait using object. style. cursor = “wait” in javascript.
The Windows wait cursor, informally the Blue circle of death (known as the hourglass cursor until Windows Vista) is a cursor that indicates that an application is busy performing an operation.
Qsiris solution is "widget wide". If you want to change cursor for your whole application then use
QApplication::setOverrideCursor(Qt::WaitCursor); and
QApplication::restoreOverrideCursor(); Note: As @Ehsan Khodarahmi pointed out, the cursor will NOT change until triggering next QT event or calling QApplication::processEvents() manually.
