Here's my personal "wish list" for Python 3/PyQt4 (including those
that
Phil is going to do as he says above):
- No QString, only str, plus some static functions for things that
str
doesn't provide, e.g., QString.simplified(s : str) -> str
- No QByteArray, only bytes (or bytearray)
- No QVariant, only object
- Guarantee that "from PyQt4.QtGui import *" and similar will only
import objects whose name begins with capital Q.
That'd be cool. An alternative that I think would be even better
would be to provide a "Qt" namespace as per QtRuby and drop the
Q prefix from the classes, so Qt.Application, Qt.Widget, &c.
That'd dodge the ugly namespace pollution while not causing
much more typing.
While we're all chiming in, I'd like to add a vote for PEP8[0]
package and module naming. For example:
The main package:
PyQt4 -> pyqt4
And modules:
Qt -> qt
QtGui -> qtgui
QtCore -> qtcore
etc.
