Using Qt.py instead of PyQt5 import

[mherrmann]

When I freeze my fbs-tutorial, it works great -- even when I use PySide2. 😄

👍 that's awesome! Long-term, it would be amazing if fbs could simply use PySide2 instead of PyQt.

To debug this, I would remove the --windowed flag from fbs/freeze/windows.py. Then, run the .exe from a command prompt. You should get debug output this way that should hopefully give more insights than "Failed to execute script main".

Hope this helps. If not, let me know.

Cheers,
M

Thanks, this helped. I was using an older version of Qt.py (v1.0.0b3) and when updating to the very latest (v1.1.0), the problem went away) and I can now skip defining the binding explicitly, and use Qt.py instead! 👍

I'm somewhat aware of what caused the issue. There was a change in Qt.py, where the whole .ui file loading behavior was overhauled in Qt.py (v1.0.0b5 I believe). This overhaul work fixed the issues I was now hitting.
