When you connect a Qt signal to a Python slot a QObject derived proxy is created. The proxy has a Qt slot for every signal signature that the module might emit. The connection is actually made to the proxy - the proxy then calls the Python slot/method/function. 'func' is a pointer to a function that will return an instance of the correct proxy. > 2.

You are misunderstanding 't' - because the comments in the code are misleading. 't' is used to get the Python object that wraps every C++ address (ie. "sipThis"). 'm' is used to get the C++ address. > 3. I don't understand the code for 'G' and 'S' Qt implements the SIGNAL() and SLOT() macros by pasting "2" and "1" respectively to the start of their argument. The PyQt implementations do the same - and PYSIGNAL does the same and uses "9". 'G' and 'S' are just checking that the correct SIGNAL(), SLOT() or PYSIGNAL() functions have been used.
