This project is NOT the official PythonQt repository.
It is a fork of PythonQt sources hosted on sourceforge adding support for CMake build system.
It is used as staging area to maintain and test patches that will be contributed back to the official repository.
PythonQt is a dynamic Python binding for Qt. It offers an easy way to embed the Python scripting language into your Qt applications.
Based on the Qt version your project is expected to support, you could use one of the branch referenced below:
| Supported Qt version | 4 | 5 |
|---|---|---|
| Branch | patched-6 | patched-9 |
| Base PythonQt revision | r403 | MeVisLab/pythonqt@c07f09fd |

See table above for exact branch name
- Configure
mkdir PythonQt-build && cd PythonQt-build
- using Qt4:
cmake -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/path/to/qmake ../PythonQt

- Based on patched-4 + r403 excluding commit r397
- List of bug fixes:
- Fix for memory leaks and cleanup crash
- List of features:
- CMake:
- Fix install rules
- Fix "_invalid_parameter_noinfo_noreturn" link error
- PythonQt:
- Add Qt5 support
- Add PY3K support
- CMake:
- Based on patched-3 + r245
- List of features:
- Add BUILD_TESTING option disabled by default to keep behavior consistent with previous version.
- Do not exclude enums from wrapping if they are QFlags.
- Ensure enums added using only Q_FLAGS without corresponding Q_ENUMS are wrapped.
- Backported:
- Most of the change specific to
patched-2branch have been backported upstream: r241, r242, r243
- Most of the change specific to
- Based on r228
- List of features:
- At configuration time, detect the Qt version used and seamlessly compile the appropriate wrappers (Qt 4.8, 4.7 or 4.6).
- Add method allowing to know if a python error occurred: 5935f29
- Also add associated method "resetErrorFlag": a386dc60
