This is done like this:

InstanceOfQTreeWidget.setContextMenuPolicy(Qt.CustomContextMenu);

and then connect the SIGNAL("customContextMenuRequested(const QPoint
&)") with your needed popup menu.

There are already SIGNALS for them...
DoubleClick: SIGNAL("itemDoubleClicked(QTreeWidgetItem *, int)")
SingleClick: SIGNAL("itemClicked(QTreeWidgetItem *, int )")

I don't know if this helps you, but
