[PyQt] Re: PyQT lost reference (was: Re: PyKDE: KConfigSkeleton not writing configuration)
Hi, sorry for keeping replying to myself, but nobody else seems to show interest and I am trying to find the root cause of the error: The QString() that I am passing as reference to the C++ class KCoreConfigSkeleton exists as local variable in my Python class derived from KCoreConfigSkeleton. Now any code that interacts with KCoreConfigSkeleton (C++ or Python) may change this QString instance. Looking at the SIP file I see the following: KCoreConfigSkeleton::ItemString* addItemString (const QString& name, QString& reference, const QString& defaultValue = QLatin1String(""), const QString& key = QString()); Could it be that this method declaration misses /In/ and /Out/ for QString &reference? The documentation on /In/ and /Out/ was not too clear for me, could someone elaborate what happens exactly when these statements are given?

By default SIP infers whether an argument is being passed into a function or is only being used to return a value from the function according to the type of the argument. /In/ and /Out/ allow you to be explicit about the direction in case the default behaviour is wrong. For a QString& the default is that the argument is being passed into the function. The fact that the string may be being updated doesn't qualify it as being used to return a value in this context. It looks like the omission of any /In/ or /Out/ is correct in this case. Phil ___ PyQt mailing listPyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt

No, do exactly the opposite. If you pass a Python string then it will be converted to a QString under the covers.

Just create a new method that you connect to your button's clicked() signal and include the Exif extraction code there.

What about this ? #!/bin/env python import sys from PyQt4.QtCore import * from PyQt4.QtGui import * class Frame(QDialog): def __init__(self): QDialog.__init__(self) pass class GUI(Frame): def __init__(self): Frame.__init__(self) b = QLabel("HOLA") l = QVBoxLayout() l.addWidget(b) self.setLayout(l) if __name__ == "__main__": app = QApplication(sys.argv) ui = GUI() ui.show() app.exec_() This snippet creates a Frame and a widget as a subclass of it. This is enough to make the widget appear into the Frame I want to achieve that, but with Frame being a compound widget with its central area, and that area being the default 'container' to hold derived widgets.

No its not, you're mixing different terms here. A subclass (aka derived class) in python is created by this statement: class Foo(Bar): ... In this case Foo is a subclass of Bar. However in the above example (with the magic re-parenting of QLayout&QWidget) b is just a child widget inside your Frame. > This is enough to make the widget appear into the Frame > I want to achieve that, but with Frame being a compound widget with its > central area, and that area being the default 'container' to hold > derived widgets.

With the > main form derived from 'object' i can't make the above subclassing example. Thats because Qt designer doesn't design any widgets. You design a template of how your gui should look like and then you can apply that template to a given QWidget. That will create the designed gui inside the given QWidget. Afterwards you can add that QWidget into any layout and the GUI will show up inside that layout. Maybe you should have a closer look at the PyQt examples and maybe check out Mark Summerfields book on PyQt. It seems your missing some of the basics of Qt GUI's.

The weird thing in this case is that the changes made by KCoreConfigSkeleton are discarded. Even if I call KCoreConfigSkeleton::ItemString::setValue(), the referenced QString is not updated (although it will then be written to disk correctly). This suggests that two instances of the same QString exist. I can live with the workaround calling KCoreConfigSkeleton::ItemString::setValue() and getValue(), but I wonder where the bug is.
