Overview¶

To automate PyQt4 based applications with Squish for Qt please contact froglogic support. By default, Squish for Qt for Qt 4 binary releases contain Qt3Support, but this causes incompatibility with PyQt4, therefore a custom Squish build without Qt3support is needed.

Please be sure to specify the following information:

• Version of PyQt (ask developer or check file name of downloaded PyQt archive)

• Version of Qt (see Getting the version of Qt libraries )

• Whether Python, Qt, PyQt or the application are 32- or 64-bit (see Checking whether an application is 32-bit or 64-bit )

• On Windows: Compiler used to compile Qt (see Detecting the compiler )

• On Windows: Compiler of the .exe launcher (see Detecting the compiler )

For PyQt5 based applications, it is not necessary to contact support for a custom build of Squish. Matching the compiler version, Qt version and architecture (32-bit, 64-bit) with PyQt5 should be sufficient.

Known configurations of PyQt4 binary packages¶

Please note that the Qt libraries of PyQt binary packages for Windows are usually located at this path ( denotes the Python installation folder):

<python>\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4

In one case the Qt libraries were located here:

<python>\Lib\site-packages\PyQt4\bin
