Ok, I overloaded the PumpThread module, so the result code is:
##########################################################
## pyqt_pumpThread.py
import sys
newpath2 = '/usr/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/'
if not newpath2 in sys.path:
sys.path.append(newpath2)
newpath3 = '/usr/autodesk/maya2009-x64/devkit/other/PyQtScripts/qt/
zGUI'
if not newpath3 in sys.path:
sys.path.append(newpath3)
newpath4 = '/usr/autodesk/maya2009-x64/devkit/other/PyQtScripts/qt'
if not newpath4 in sys.path:
sys.path.append(newpath4)
import maya.utils as utils
import threading
import time
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui
pumpedThread = None
app = None
def get_app():
global app
return app
def set_app(i_app):
global app
app = i_app
def get_pt():
global pumpedThread
return pumpedThread
def set_pt(i_pt):
global pumpedThread
pumpedThread = i_pt
def pumpQt():
app = get_app()
def processor():
app.processEvents()
while 1:
time.sleep(0.01)
utils.executeDeferred( processor )
def initializePumpThread():
if get_pt() == None:
set_app(QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv))
set_pt(threading.Thread( target = pumpQt, args = () ))
get_pt().start()
##########################################################
You can import this module in your Qdialog script, but don't use exec
() because pumpThread manages this, you only need to use show():
##########################################################
import pyqt_pumpThread as pt
pt.initializePumpThread()
myDialog = QtGui.QDialog()
##Your actions
myDialog.show()
##########################################################
This works ok to me, I hope for you too.
