Re: [PyKDE] PyQt v4 Roadmap

[Longson, Joe]

Agreed...  But we are supporting a large body of code that already has many "import qt" and "from qt import *" statements throughout the code...  Having a more standardized way of handling this (rather than providing a 'qt.py' file for every project that uses pyqt) would be much preferrable...  BTW.  I DO like the new namespaces in Qt4..  It makes things much nicer for programming and using pyqt.  However, they also are providing backwards compatibility header files in most cases.. On a side note:  I'm really pleased with the roadmap for Qtv4 support.   This is really good news. Joe Truls A.

The module names will be the same as the corresponding library (eg. QtCore, QtGui) and be grouped as a single Python package called PyQt4. The suggested programming style for new applications would then be: import sys >from PyQt4 import QtGui app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv) Would we be required to use the from PyQt4 import QtGui? The existing namespace allows us to do "import qt" Could a similar facility be provided? (for maintaining more code compatibility) e.g. In qt.py -------------- from PyQt4 import * from PyQt4.QtGui import * Wouldn't that be best left to individual programmers? If you need such a namespace, just provide it as part of your application. -- Joe Longson Senior Software Engineer (818) 460-8384 (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] *o* Walt Disney Feature Animation
