Hi, Back in April of this year Jeremy Sanders reported crashes when storing a python object in QModelIndex internalPointer. I've had crashes of this nature as well. It seems to work the vast majority of the time but I now have a case that seems to consistently crash although not always with the same error.
Jeremy's report is at http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/pipermail/pyqt/2011- April/029719.html . The suggestion in replies there was to make sure that python had pointers to all the things in internalPointer -- I'm quite certain that my python object structure does in fact have live references so I think there is an additional bug (although maintaining live python references seems quite sensible to me). I'm currently on ubuntu 11.04 with PyQt 4.8.3 and Qt 4.7.2. I think this same crash is happening on windows vista (with Qt versions I don't have at the moment). My model source is at https://bitbucket.org/jbmohler/qtalchemy/src/69e8f006fee2/qtalchemy/PyQtModels.py in the class PBTableModel. I'd have to work a bit to prune this down to something self-complete. Of additional note is that converting everything in sight to PySide results in a non-crashing application. I'm hesitant to rush off to PySide on the basis of this bug, but it's tempting.
