Riverbank | Software | PyQt | Roadmap

Riverbank Computing have published a roadmap for the future of the Python-Qt bindings (PyQt). The planned developments include:

  • Python v3 support, which it is intended will not involve changes to the API
  • Enabling Python-type signal-slot connections as well as the current C++ style connections
  • Allowing the use of QDataStream to transmit pickled Python objects
  • Wrapping of standard Python objects for the Qt model-view system (Interview)
  • Removing a number of Qt classes which duplicate Python classes, such as QString and QByteArray
  • Improving the documentation

The full list, with explanations, is available at the link above. You can use a form at the page above to send suggestions to Riverbank.
