This seems to work (but I don't think its thread safe). You probably need to
use a mutex or semaphore somewhere.
"""
This demo demonstrates how to embed a matplotlib (mpl) plot
into a PyQt4 GUI application, including:
* Using the navigation toolbar
* Adding data to the plot
* Dynamically modifying the plot's properties
* Processing mpl events
* Saving the plot to a file from a menu
The main goal is to serve as a basis for developing rich PyQt GUI
applications featuring mpl plots (using the mpl OO API).

For those interested the current PyQt4 and SIP snapshots fully support the
final release of Qt v5.0.0. Bug reports welcome.

Sorry, googling some of the messages shows they come from the OSX Core
Graphics. So it's an issue between Qt and OSX. Sorry for the noise.

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to plot live datas using matplotlib and PyQt. I need a
multithreaded program beacause I use time.sleep and it freeze completely the
app during that moment. I've tried that but it crash immediatly:
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui
import time
import sys
from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt4agg import FigureCanvasQTAgg as
FigureCanvas
from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt4agg import NavigationToolbar2QTAgg as
NavigationToolbar
from matplotlib.figure import Figure
# Subclassing QThread
# http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qthread.html
class Graph(FigureCanvas):
def __init__(self,parent):
self.fig = Figure()
self.ax = self.fig.add_subplot(111)
FigureCanvas.__init__(self, self.fig)
self.R1 = []
self.l_R1, = self.ax.plot([], self.R1,"-o")
self.fig.canvas.draw()
FigureCanvas.updateGeometry(self)
class ApplicationWindow(QtGui.QMainWindow):
"""Example main window"""
def __init__(self):
QtGui.QMainWindow.__init__(self)
self.main_widget = QtGui.QWidget(self)
vbl = QtGui.QGridLayout(self.main_widget)
qmc = Graph(self.main_widget)
vbl.addWidget(qmc,0,0,1,11)
self.setCentralWidget(self.main_widget)
class AThread(QtCore.QThread):
def run(self):
count = 0
while count < 5:
time.sleep(1)
print "Increasing"
count += 1
aw.l_R1.set_data(count, count)
def usingQThread():
app = QtCore.QCoreApplication([])
thread = AThread()
thread.finished.connect(app.exit)
thread.start()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
if __name__ == "__main__":
#
qApp = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
aw = ApplicationWindow()
aw.showMaximized()
usingQThread()
sys.exit(qApp.exec_())
Could you explain me why? The aim is to use one thread to acquire the data
and another to refresh the graph.
Thanks!
Fabien

Hello Phil,
will you eventually provide Windows installers including Qt5 as well? If you
will, will it be possible to install them in parallel, i.e. have PyQt4 with
Qt4 and Qt5 available at the same time?
Regards,
Detlev

Subject: [PyQt] Issue with latest PyQt4 snapshot and Qt 5.0.0
Message-ID: <2812146.BFkD31vffh@saturn>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Hello,
I built and installed Qt 5.0.0 myself on my openSUSE 12.2 machine.
Everything compiled and installed fine. However, when I tried to configure
the latest PyQt4 snapshot with a command like
~/py3qt50env/bin/python configure.py -b ~/py3qt50env/bin/ -v
~/py3qt50env/sip - c -j8
I am getting an error
Determining the layout of your Qt installation...
Error: Unable to find the qmake configuration file
/usr/local/Qt-5.0.0/mkspecs/default/qmake.conf. Use the QMAKESPEC
environment variable to specify the correct platform.
I checked the Qt5 installation and indeed, there is no default directory.
How can I tell configure.py which mkspec to use (other than through
QMAKESPEC)?
Regards,
Detlev

Hello,
here is the next issue I faced. Having resolved the before reported issue
temporarily I tried to compile. However, the linking stage failed. Here is
the output.

/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:

That is correct because the installed Qt5 libraries are called
libQt5Widgets.so libQt5PrintSupport.so and so on.
