Hello,
I am trying to write a UI for my utility, using QT-Python. I first launch a
GUI and click on a toolButton to open up the directory structure, from
which I select a particular file.
self.fileDialog = QtGui.QFileDialog()
QtCore.QObject.connect(self.toolButton,
QtCore.SIGNAL(_fromUtf8("clicked()")), self.fileDialog.getOpenFileName)
So far so good.
How do I store the return value of getOpenFileName?
For example, if I do the following, it gives error:
QtCore.QObject.connect(self.toolButton,
QtCore.SIGNAL(_fromUtf8("clicked()")),
(filepath=self.fileDialog.getOpenFileName))
The reason I want to store the return value is because I want to capture
the filename/path that getOpenFilename returned in a string so I can copy
it to a lineEdit space as below:
self.lineEdit.setText(filepath)
text = self.lineEdit.text()
(If I do the following, it will re-lauch the directory list), which I don't
want.
self.lineEdit.setText(self.fileDialog.getOpenFileName())
Thanks in advance.
SM
