Howdy, I'm using PyQt mostly in conjunction with Maya, but also for standalone applications. I have a situation where from within Maya, I launch a PyQt app that uses sip's "wrapinstance" command. I'm creating a Maya-derived graphical entity and parenting it into the PyQt window. I've done this before, and this technique is current "conventional practice" amongst many in the uh, Maya/PyQt community shall we say. It's worked many times for me before, but now it's crashing. The *only* difference is that when it crashes now, it's when a really large object has been loaded into Maya.
After Maya launch, run the tool, everything's fine. Load really large database, run the tool, it crashes...always at the "sip" line... So, I tried an experiment, I did everything as normal, but I didn't call sip, and it didn't crash. So my first thought was can I install a new version of SIP, or is the version I'm using "locked" into compatibility with the versions of Python and PyQt I'm on... Or would downloading a newer version possibly fix the problem? My environ is: Python 2.6.4 PyQt 4.5.3 (or 4.5.5, I forget) SIP (how to get the version?) What kind of conflicts could occur with large memory usage? I'm running XP Pro 64-bit with 8G memory,..the large database is about 1.4G on the drive Also open to any other thoughts, suggestions, or advice,... Cheers, -Jim
