pyside issue

[Todd Widup]

#     return shiboken.wrapInstance(long(ptr), QtGui.QMainWindow)
# TypeError: You need a shiboken-based type. #

I am getting this in Maya 2014 on ever pyside gui that I try. 

Shiboken is importing fine...so what would cause this?

I forget. Do they include shiboken Python libs with 2014 or did you have to build them?

Does it do this directly from the script editor when you just import PySide and Shiboken, and try to wrap the Maya main window?

Doesn't error on import so assuming its included. 

Directly in the script editor or on import

I'm not really sure but I was getting at trying to see if you somehow have an old shiboken you built, importing and being used with a newer PySide.
If you print the shiboken and PySide modules do they both show up as being located in the Maya site-packages?

I've seen this before when PyQt4 has already been imported and your mixing PySide in.  Be sure that  QtGui.QMainWindow is from the PySide modules.  Print the __file__ attr for that before hand.

I run the following code successfully on Maya 2014 x64, did you check your version of shiboken? shiboken.__version__ says 1.1.1 for me

import shiboken

from PySide import QtGui

import maya.OpenMayaUI as _OpenMayaUI

ptr = _OpenMayaUI.MQtUtil.mainWindow()

mainWindow = shiboken.wrapInstance(long(ptr), QtGui.QMainWindow)

mainWindow.showMinimized()

[Todd Widup]

yeah even that errors with # TypeError: You need a shiboken-based type. #

shiboken is 1.1.1 as well  

someone else pointed me to a wrapInstance function that handles sip and shiboken, and it does the same. 

and checking the type on QtGui.QMainWindow just before the shiboken call its showing it as # Result: <type 'Shiboken.ObjectType'> #

had an office mate run it, and it just minimized his maya window.  

hmm, maybe I will blow away my prefs and see

Did you find the cause of this problem?

I just had the same issue.

I've been lobbying a bit with a PyQt4, putting it amongst the Maya install files and such so I wouldn't be surprised if there was remnants of it messing about yet I couldn't nail down the cause.

Cleared preferences didn't have any effect, neither did a fresh install on the same computer. On a fresh OS install (Windows 8) however it works fine.

nah...tracked it down to something on my machine specifically as pyside code runs on everyone elses...just haven't had time to get back in and see.  have a feeling its an env someplace that was set by a one of the studios I work with.

Hey, have you made any progress in this area?

I eventually had to jump ship and head back into PyQt land for this. Posted a link to a Windows compile here.

no, just narrowed it down to my system is all.  haven't had a chance to get back and start sorting thru it more.  I did talk to a counter-part of mine at one of our studios and he had ran into it before, but couldn't recall the fix.
