| PyQt4 to PyQt5 Conversion Script | mark.mc...@disneyanimation.com | 19/07/16 09:50 | At Walt Disney Animation Studios we have been hard at work converting our code to Qt5/PyQt5 for CY2016. One of the key components in our conversion process was a PyQt4 to PyQt5 Conversion Script from a github project known as pyqt4topyqt5. We have greatly enhanced this script and our changes are now available on github. Thanks to Riccardo Ferrazzo for starting this project. It has been a great help to us and I hope that it will be a great help to others as well. We will be giving a brief overview of our experiences with the Qt5/PyQt5 conversion process at the "VFX Reference Platform - A Common Target for Building VFX Software" Birds of a Feather at SIGGRAPH 2016. |

Maybe post-siggraph it would be useful to post back to this thread with a summary of gotchas or cases that weren't handled automatically by the script, and strategies you may have taken to streamline the conversion process.

But rather than choosing either or, we've made a shim so as to support both at once. One of the goal is to enable this very same transition from Qt 4 to 5, which we expect will need backwards compatibility for at least a few years. Another is to simply not bother choosing to begin with, for new projects. - https://github.com/mottosso/Qt.py To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/vfx-platform-discuss/CADBZUEhi_fHNjVzV8%2Bgo-Lt_XC2sqydjEAnhUi5xkHuh0_njuQ%40mail.gmail.com. -- |
