[PyQt] What happend to PyQt5.QtCore.pyqtWrapperType?

[Marcus Ottosson]

Hi Phil,

Do you have any recommendations for alternatives to pyqtWrapperType when it
comes to metaclasses? I was using it to dynamically add signals to a
QObject.

class PropertyType(QtCore.pyqtWrapperType):
    """Metaclass for converting class attributes into pyqtProperties"""

    prefix = "__pyqtproperty__"

    def __new__(cls, name, bases, attrs):
        """Convert class properties into pyqtProperties"""

        for key, value in attrs.copy().items():
            if key.startswith("__"):
                continue

            notify = QtCore.pyqtSignal()

            def set_data(key, value):
                def set_data(self, value):
                    setattr(self, cls.prefix + key, value)
                    getattr(self, key + "Changed").emit()
                    self.__datachanged__.emit(self)
                return set_data

            attrs[key + "Changed"] = notify
            attrs[key] = QtCore.pyqtProperty(
                type(value) if value is not None else QtCore.QVariant,
                fget=lambda self, k=key: getattr(self, cls.prefix + k, None),
                fset=set_data(key, value),
                notify=notify)

        return super(PropertyType, cls).__new__(cls, name, bases, attrs)
class AbstractItem(QtCore.QObject):
    __metaclass__ = PropertyType
    __datachanged__ = QtCore.pyqtSignal(QtCore.QObject)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

    def __repr__(self):
        return "%s.%s(%r)" % (__name__, type(self).__name__, self.__str__())

Using type in place of pyqtWrapperType results in a:

TypeError: metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a derived class must
be a (non-strict) subclass of the metaclasses of all its bases

.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
