Query regarding PythonQt

[Shankar Narayana]

Hi,
  After a big fight, I could get through the problem. I am posting it so
that others does not waste  time solving the issue.
I dont know why "evalfile" method is having problems with existing .pyc
files. But, we can solve it this way.
First create your .cpp and .py file in <somedir> directory. Then, do the
following
1. Create somename.qrc file
 <!DOCTYPE RCC><RCC version="1.0">
 <qresource>
     <file>Filename.py</file>
 </qresource>
 </RCC> 2. Navigate to the directory <somedir>. Type the command: qmake
-project (It creates project (.pro) file)
3. Next command: qmake (It creates a make file).
4. Then update the makefile  INCPATH to add for Python and Python-Qt
-I/usr/include/python2.5 -I/home/workspace/PythonQt-1.0/src
5. Update the LIBS  -L/usr/lib/python2.5/config/libpython2.5.a
-L/home/workspace/PythonQt-1.0/lib -lpython2.5 -lPythonQt
WARNING: Always use ":<pythonfilename>" in your cpp file eval command. Then
only Qrc will be used to create the corresponding. pyc file. Otherwise, the
terminal will crash.
Now issue the command "make" and run your application. Things work fine now.

I am not very clear with QRC but its a very good solution.

Rgds,
Shankar
