In Python 3 there are no QStrings in both pyqt4 and pyside

But I have problem with passing str as QString in python3:

Code: Select all

from PyKDE4.kdecore import KStandardDirs
dirs = KStandardDirs()
dirs.findResourceDir('data')
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
/home/pasha/<ipython-input-25-a1e493d1ba02> in <module>()
----> 1 d.findResourceDir('data')

TypeError: KStandardDirs.findResourceDir(): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'

Have you tried passing a unicode string instead of a standard string?

in python 3 all strings are unicode just as in Qt.
u'str' gives invalid syntax.

Sorry about that, used to working with Python 2. u'str' is Python 2 syntax...

Have you tried using QString directly?
from PyQt4.QtCore import QString
