PyQt 4.3

PyQt - Set of Python bindings for Trolltech's Qt application.

PyQt brings together the Qt C++ cross-platform application framework and the cross-platform interpreted language Python.

PyQt is a set of Python bindings for Trolltech's Qt application framework and runs on all platforms supported by Qt including Windows, MacOS/X and Linux. There are two sets of bindings: PyQt v4 supports Qt v4; and the older PyQt v3 supports Qt v3 and earlier. The bindings are implemented as a set of Python modules and contain over 300 classes and nearly 6,000 functions and methods.

PyQt combines all the advantages of Qt and Python. A programmer has all the power of Qt, but is able to exploit it with the simplicity of Python.

PyQt includes pyuic which takes the same designs that uic converts to C++, but converts them to the equivalent Python code. This makes PyQt particularly useful as a rapid prototyping environment for applications that will eventually be implemented in C++.
