Qt for Python? what is the name?** - The name of the project is Qt for Python and the name of the module is PySide2. - -**Why PySide2 and not just PySide?** - Since PySide was developed for Qt4, when the port was made to support Qt5, - the name is changed to PySide2 to imply that it was a newer version. - -**Where I can find information about the old PySide project?** - The old wiki page of the project is available on PySide, but the project is deprecated - and there is no official support for it. We highly recommend not to use it. - -**My project is using PySide, how hard would it be to adapt it to PySide2?** - The changes are the same as between Qt4 and Qt5, and for PySide users it mostly means - adapting the import statements since many classes were moved from QtGui to QtWidgets. - Qt 5 is highly compatible with Qt 4. It is possible for developers of Qt 4 applications to - seamlessly move to Qt 5 with their current functionality and gradually develop new things, - leveraging all the great items Qt 5 makes possible. - -**Does PySide2 support Android and iOS development / deployment?** - At the moment there is no support for mobile platforms. - -**Does PySide2 have support for embedded Linux (Raspberry Pi, i.MX6 etc)?** - Not at the moment. - -**There are three wheels (pyside2, shiboken2, and shiboken2_generator), what is the different between them?** - - Before the official release, everything was in one big wheel, but it made sense to split - the projects in three different wheels: - - * **pyside2**: contains all the PySide2 modules to use the Qt framework. - Also depends on the shiboken2 module. - * **shiboken2**: contains the shiboken2 module with helper functions for PySide2. - * **shiboken2_generator**: contains the generator binary that can work with a C++ project - and a typesystem to generate Python bindings. - Take into account that if you want to generate bindings for a Qt/C++ project, - the linking to the Qt shared libraries will be missing, and you will need to do this by hand. - We recommend to build PySide2 from scratch to have everything properly linked. - -**Why shiboken2_generator is not installed automatically?** - It's not necessary to install it to use PySide2. - The package is the result of the wheel splitting process. - To use the generator, it's recommended to build it from scratch to have the proper Qt-linking. |
