I've been hunting for any N900 PyQt widget and application examples, but so far I haven't found a lot. Most of the examples in the docs assume the use of C/C++.

I've got a smal application working in Eric4 / Qt Designer, but I'd like to make it a N900 widget.

Any help appreciated.

I second that request... couldn´t find any PyQt4 code examples on google for n900 desktop widget...

If you show me a little example helloworld widget in Qt/C++, I can try and make a PyQt widget out of it.

Have a look here.

Whoa, that's no moon... It looks more like an X function handling example than Qt Not sure how to handle all that except through ctypes, and if I go there, it will be ugly as hell (what's the point in writing Python code if it looks uglier than the C original ? )

Hello,

this might help you a bit.

I use qt designer and then I use pyside's tool to convert the xx.ui to xx.py to include

pyside-uic -d xx.ui -o xx.py

my main body of code (main.py) looks like this:
from PySide import QtCore, QtGui
import sys
import ui


class starter(QtGui.QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(starter, self).__init__(parent)
self.ui = ui.Ui_Frame()
self.ui.setupUi(self)

if __name__ == "__main__":
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
starter = starter()
starter.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())


Please note that this example, used a frame, so if you start with a widget your line will look something like:
ui.Ui_Widget()

Hope that helps.

FYI, "PyQt Documentation and Examples" just got released to Extras. That might be helpful

http://maemo.org/packages/package_in...oc/4.7-maemo2/

Hey, that's a familiar package But jokes aside, the discussion was about desktop widgets, and that examples packages falls short in that regard (as they are sadly not really supported in Qt4.5 without some workarounds/quite a bit of boilerplate code). Apparently Qt4.6 will be better in that regard (this is not really about PyQt, PyQt will use whatever the underlying Qt supports).

Yeah after I re-read it I realized you're asking the same thing I was in another thread:

Daniel said he's hoping to have an example up soon.

oops. Had I know you were the maintainer I'd wouldn't have mentioned it. I have found it quite interesting though, as on device code examples.
