-.. py:function:: loadUiType(uifile: str) -> tuple(object, object)
-
- :param str uifile: The name of the `.ui` file
- :return: tuple(object, object)
-
- This function generates and loads a `.ui` file at runtime, and it returns
- a `tuple` containing the reference to the Python class, and the base class.
-
- We recommend not to use this approach as the workflow should be to generate a Python file
- from the `.ui` file, and then import and load it to use it, but we do understand that
- there are some corner cases when such functionality is required.
-
- The internal process relies on `uic` being in the PATH.
- The `pyside6-uic` wrapper uses a shipped `uic` that is located in the
- `site-packages/PySide6/uic`, so PATH needs to be updated to use that if there
- is no `uic` in the system.
-
- A simple use case is::
-
- from PySide6.QtUiTools import loadUiType
-
- generated_class, base_class = loadUiType("themewidget.ui")
- # the values will be:
- # (<class '__main__.Ui_ThemeWidgetForm'>, <class 'PySide6.QtWidgets.QWidget'>)
-
- widget = base_class()
- form = generated_class()
- form.setupUi(widget)
- # form.a_widget_member.a_method_of_member()
- widget.show()
