We welcome any contribution conforming to the -[Qt Contribution Agreement](https://www.qt.io/contributionagreement/). - - -PySide 2 supports Qt5. For building, please read about -[getting started](https://wiki.qt.io/PySide2_GettingStarted). -Then download the sources by running - - git clone https://code.qt.io/pyside/pyside-setup - -### Building - -#### Dependencies - -PySide versions following 5.6 use a C++ parser based on -[Clang](http://clang.org/). The Clang library (C-bindings), version 3.9 or -higher is required for building. Prebuilt versions of it can be downloaded from -[download.qt.io](http://download.qt.io/development_releases/prebuilt/libclang/). - -After unpacking the archive, set the environment variable *LLVM_INSTALL_DIR* to -point to the folder containing the *include* and *lib* directories of Clang: - - 7z x .../libclang-release_39-linux-Rhel7.2-gcc5.3-x86_64.7z - export LLVM_INSTALL_DIR=$PWD/libclang - -On Windows: - - 7z x .../libclang-release_39-windows-vs2015_64.7z - SET LLVM_INSTALL_DIR=%CD%\libclang - -#### Build Instructions - -You might consider using a virtual environment as described at -[getting started](https://wiki.qt.io/PySide2_GettingStarted). -You should be able to build: - - cd pyside-setup - python setup.py install +shiboken2 is the generator used to build the bindings. -The setup script will try to find the location of the qmake tool of the Qt -version to be used and the cmake build tool in the path.
