Status update: Shiboken QtCore done, QtGui almost there
I’ve been making PySide status updates on the mailing list but have managed to somewhat neglect the website. Here are links to a couple of previous recent status updates:
- http://lists.openbossa.org/pipermail/pyside/2010-January/000375.html
- http://lists.openbossa.org/pipermail/pyside/2010-January/000353.html
And here’s about last sprint’s results and the immediate future plans:
Last sprint’s main goal was to finish Shiboken QtCore and QtGui module bindings. QtCore got done just fine but work on QtGui unearthed some bugs and minor missing features in the Shiboken generator itself and this delayed QtGui completion to the current sprint. Some related work was also done such as fixing the Shiboken PySide compilation issues with Python 2.5.
As was discussed on the list already, Carlos Gonçalves has contributed the Shiboken QtNetwork implementation! Also, Didier “OdyX” Raboud got boost-PySide to Debian unstable and has already begun working on the Shiboken packages. Kudos for them!
This sprint, lasting from today (Feb 11) until Feb 24, the core dev team’s main goal still is to get QtGui implementation done. Most of it is already finished so this shouldn’t be a biggie, despite most of the core dev team getting wasted, robbed, maimed, and killed during the Brazilian Carnaval early next week.

Some further verification will be done on QtNetwork and if there’s time left, we’ll start working on QtXml.
That’s about it.
