QTreeWidgetItem.__init__ (self, QTreeWidget parent, QStringList strings,

Shouldn't that cause an Attribute error to be raised?

No. PyQt allows any sequence of strings to be used where a QStringList is
expected - and a string is a sequence of (1 character) strings.

However it shouldn't crash (unless it is a Qt bug). Have you got a
complete test script that demonstrates the problem?

Phil

A simple test didn't cause the error, and I now I can't reproduce it in my app code by reinstating the previously offending line, so it looks like something else must have been also contributing to the crash. The only clue I have is that I changed the string to a list and the crash went away.
