[Tutor] QT5 pyqt5 for python 2.7
Hello, I am trying to get up to speed on python; expand my skills etc. I work in a VFX environment where most all the tools continue to run with python 2.7XX I have seen that pyqt5 supports python 2.7 according to its documentation but it needs to be rebuilt to function. I have done some homework on the subject and tried to download, tweak and install some things but nothing works. Can someone point me in the right direction? Also I see QT5 mentioned in addition to pyqt5 or like pyqt5 is just a binding of QT5 to python? can someone explain. ideally i just need the holes filled in as I have searched and searched and there seems to be no clear path to getting this working even though people are using it and have rebuilt it already. appreciate any help up front Best, ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Thats unusual, usually you can find a binary by somebody. But provided you have the dev tools building from source shoulkd not be too difficult. I have done some homework on the subject and tried to download, tweak and install some things but nothing works. Define "othing works" Can you download it? What tweaks? What happened? What kind of install, how did you do it? What errors did you get? We need specifics. Also I see QT5 mentioned in addition to pyqt5 or like > pyqt5 is just a binding of QT5 to python? can someone explain. Thats correct. QT5 is the actual C/C++ UI Library and pyqt5 is a Python binding to that. (Similaar to the forked "side" project which you might also explore since they might have a binary ready built) ideally i just need the holes filled in as I have searched and searched and there seems to be no clear path There are side and pyqt support forums, your best bet for detailed help is to ask there.
