QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already running

[Pierre Raybaut]

I will soon release a patch to fix this bug in IPython.

The idea is to remove the PyQt thread management when using IPython.

 

In the meantime, you can correct this by yourself simply by replacing "Shell.py" in "C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\IPython" by the attached version (you may backup the original file, we never know...).

 

Thanks again for your feedback.

Apparently, that is a known bug of IPython when using PyQt4...

I'll see what I can do.

(short-term solution: remove the "-q4thread" switch in Console2 tab settings, and modify the matplotlib settings: remove the line related to Qt4 backend)

Thanks for the feedback.

Hi

I've a problem with Ipython(matplotlib and Qt4) since Python(x,y)
1.1.5. When I type for example

>>> help()

 the following error appears:

QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already
running
QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already
running
QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already
running
QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already
running
QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already
running
QCoreApplication::exec: The event loop is already
running

Any Idea?

Cheers,
Adrian
