Hi Alan I do not know if I will be able to solve in short/medium time whatever the problem is as I usually do not use python or pyqt. So I will try to learn what this is all about.
Thanks for being willing to take this on. Sip (which is how we generate our pyqt bindings) advertises itself as a really easy-to-use method of generating such bindings. So by consulting that sip documentation page (referenced in my recent email), you might be able to very quickly figure out what to do for the latest sip version. If/when you get modern sip to generate our pyqt5 binding by hand, I would be happy to help with any CMake-related adjustments that need to be made. For example, I have just discovered that "sip -V" generates the sip version string which would allow me to create a simple CMake test for the sip version. That test would allow us to use the present method for old sip versions and any new method you figure out for later sip versions. Cheers, Alan __________________________ Alan W.
