[PyQt] Passing a QWidget* wrapped in a PyCObject from a C++ program?

[Elias Bachaalany]

Hi Phil,

Using Python 2.6, I could make it work with:

sip.wrapinstance(sip.voidptr(the_widget).__int__(), QtGui.QWidget)

But only after figuring out that I also had to recompile SIP with 
SIP_SUPPORT_PYCOBJECT

Thanks a lot.
