 At the point when it gets collected, it's still in scope as a local

 thread. This is as horribly wrong as it sounds. I keep thinking it
 should be memory corruption, but valgrind says it's clean.

 (After spending most of yesterday trying to figure it out, I gave up
 and rewrote the database code to use multiprocessing instead of
 QThreads. Trying to get them to work has resulted in me spending
 entirely too much time using gdb and valgrind to find bugs in python
 and Qt; it's not worth the trouble when neither of them are very
 reliable in the presence of threads. If only QtSql was asynchronous
 like everything else...)

following Eriks suggestion of disabling the GC altogether would have given a 
valuable data point for your issue. Vanishing still referenced local 
variables in a thread context is more than a disturbing evidence, that 
deserves some deep examination.

Oh, I did try that. Everything works fine when GC is disabled.

Indeed, but I spent a couple days on it and didn't get a lot of
traction. Pesky thing was so timing-sensitive that adding debugging
instrumentation to Qt, or using a debugging build of python, threw it
off enough not to trigger the bug.

[PyQt] SIP fails with syntax error on simple class inheritance

2012-04-30 Thread tuxor1337
Why does the attached sip-file always fail to be sipped with the 
following error message:


sip: my_dialog.sip:15: syntax error

(line 15 is class MyDialog : public QDialog {)

I tried to use a configure.py or directly call sip command line, but it 
always fails with the same error message.


What am I doing wrong? Is there a tutorial out there that's a bit easier 
to understand than the official documentation 
(http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/sip4/using.html)? The 
documentation is rather useless when using SIP for bigger or more 
complex libraries.


## Code of my_dialog.sip ###

%Module myDialog

%Import QtGui/QtGuimod.sip

%If (Qt_4_2_0 -)

namespace ui {

%TypeHeaderCode
#include my/ui/buttons.h
#include my/ui/label.h
#include my/ui/soft_shadow.h
%End

class MyDialog : public QDialog {

public:
MyDialog(QWidget *parent, bool show_shadow = true);
~MyDialog(void);

void updateTitle(const QString message);

public Q_SLOTS:
virtual void done(int);
};

%End

What version of SIP are you using? Assuming it's older than v4.13.1 then
you need to remove the public (as it says in the documentation for your
version).

Thanks for your quick response!

Yes, you are right. I'm using 4.12.2, so next time I'm going to refer to 
the documentation provided with my source tarball. There it's mentioned 
in the chapter Using SIP.


But to be honest, I'm still a bit puzzled by the usage of SIP. For 
example, where do I learn what to do with such an excerpt from a header 
file:


enum WaitMode {
  WAIT_NONE   = 0,
  WAIT_BEFORE_UPDATE  = 0x01,
  WAIT_COMMAND_FINISH = 0x02,
  WAIT_NORMAL = WAIT_BEFORE_UPDATE,
  WAIT_ALL= WAIT_BEFORE_UPDATE | WAIT_COMMAND_FINISH
};

SIP will complain about the WAIT_ALL line (syntax error). Is this 
due to the | operator or what's the problem here? And where in the 
documentation would I find an appropriate answer to this?

[PyQt] sip fails with [CLASSNAME] has not been defined

2012-04-30 Thread tuxor1337

Hi all,

maybe somebody can help me with this. I'm using SIP 4.12.2.

My configure.py script is executing the following sip command line:

/opt/python/bin/sip -c . -b ui/ui.sbf -I /opt/python/share/sip/PyQt4 -x 
PyQt_Accessibility -x PyQt_Cursor -x PyQt_ImageFormat_JPEG -x 
PyQt_Picture -x PyQt_PrintDialog -x PyQt_Printer -x PyQt_ProgressDialog 
-x PyQt_QWS_Cursor -x PyQt_SessionManager -x PyQt_Sound -x VendorID -t 
WS_QWS -x PyQt_Accessibility -x PyQt_SessionManager -x PyQt_PrintDialog 
-x PyQt_Printer -x PyQt_PrintPreviewDialog -x PyQt_PrintPreviewWidget -x 
PyQt_NoPrintRangeBug -x PyQt_qreal_double -t Qt_4_7_2 -x Py_v3 -g 
ui/uimod.sip


... which looks okay to me.

But it fails with this error message:

sip: OnyxDialog has not been defined

The sip-file ui/uimod.sip looks like this:


%Module PyOnyx.ui

%Include onyx_dialog.sip
%Include message_dialog.sip


The error is obviously related to the file message_dialog.sip, because 
when I leave out that file, everything is fine.


## message_dialog.sip 
%Import QtGui/QtGuimod.sip

namespace ui
{

class MessageDialog : OnyxDialog
{

%TypeHeaderCode
#include onyx/ui/message_dialog.h
%End

public:
MessageDialog(QMessageBox::Icon icon,
  const QString  title,
  const QString  text,
  QMessageBox::StandardButtons buttons = 
QMessageBox::NoButton,

  QWidget * parent = 0);
~MessageDialog();

public:
int exec();
void updateInformation(const QString  text);
};

};
## End: message_dialog.sip 


## onyx_dialog.sip 
%Import QtGui/QtGuimod.sip

namespace ui
{

class OnyxDialog : QDialog
{

%TypeHeaderCode
#include onyx/ui/onyx_dialog.h
%End

public:
OnyxDialog(QWidget *parent, bool show_shadow = true);
~OnyxDialog();
};

};

Re: [PyQt] PyQwt and PyQt 4.9

2012-04-30 Thread mitja_mreza
Hello,

I keep getting errors when trying PyQwt with PyQt 4.9.1 on Snow Leopard.
I've tried the PyQwt version 5.2.0 as found on 
http://pyqwt.sourceforge.net/download.html
as well as a 5.2.1 version PyQwt-5.2.1-cvs20100927-101816.tar.bz2 from 
OpenSuse, but neither seems to produce usable results.

Two quick questions...

* is there a latest PyQwt 5.2.1 available (e.g. SVN repository) ?

* any specific configuration changes required to build PyQwt on Snow Leopard or 
Lion, to make it work with PyQt 4.9.x?

Thank you in advance,
-Mitja



William Kyngesburye, Tue, 24 Jan 2012 18:48:17 -0800:
 It doesn't?  Works for me.  I recompiled PyQwt 5.2.1 (SVN) for PyQt 4.9 with 
 no problems.  A plugin for QGIS that uses PyQwt still works.
 
 Just wondering if I'm missing something.

Well, though I seemed to have some initial success with it, it's not working 
for me now.  I think what David Kaufman said is true - PyQwt does not work with 
PyQt 4.9.
