Running PyQt6 with Debug Modules

[Johnmichael.Quinlan at idsoftware.com]

Hi,

I have an application that I need to run in debug that utilizes PyQt6, however, the modules fail to load, it appears I need to build PyQt6 with debug symbols, likely against the Qt debug libraries? I couldn't find any documentation on how to do this and it doesn't appear to be supported in the shipped modules you can download. See the code and images below for details:

Code:

import sys
import PyQt6
from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget  # this line fails in the debug console with a no module named PyQt6.QtWidgets

app = QApplication(sys.argv)
q = QWidget()
q.resize(200,200)
q.show()


Python.exe - non debug

However, running the debug python console:

If anyone can help me figure out the steps I would need to build PyQt6 modules that work in debug that would be amazing.

I tried to build pyqt6 with sipbuild from the debug console passing the debug flag however it cant find some modules for sipbuild, so the next thing I was going to try was building sipbuild in debug. It just seems like a bit of mine field without any documentation.

Many thanks
