Question

Learning PySide. I tried below in my idle IDE to call qCompress() but failed. Can anyone help me?

>>> from PySide import QtCore
>>> QtCore.qCompress("test")

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module>
    QtCore.qCompress("test")
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'qCompress'

Looks like PySide haven’t added that yet. PyQt4 has this function. The code below works.

code

from PyQt4 import QtCore
print repr(QtCore.qCompress("test"))

output

PyQt4.QtCore.QByteArray('\x00\x00\x00\x04x\x9c+I-.\x01\x00\x04]\x01\xc1')
