Yes! down with the API separatists! But I dont think thats what Giovanni was suggesting (although it took several re-readings of his email to realise it). Trolltech enrich the Qt API as far as C++ allows, but that shouldnt prevent us further enriching the API in areas where Python is richer than C++. > > 2) Properties. I dont think I agree with all of Giovanni's suggestions, but this is top of his list for being an obviously good idea. There's no good reason to not support Python's property syntax for setting and getting things that Qt documents as being properties. (In addition to the getter/setter function API that C++ is forced to use). -- Toby Dickenson _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list PyKDE@mats.imk.fraunhofer.de http://mats.imk.fraunhofer.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
