PyQt5 is not compatibile with PyQt4 (although experience shows that the effort in porting applications from PyQt4 to PyQt5 is not great). This section describes the main differences between the two.
Supported Python Versions
Versions of Python earlier than v2.6 are not supported.
Deprecated Features
PyQt5 does not support any parts of the Qt API that are marked as deprecated or obsolete in Qt v5.0. However it is possible that some of these have been included accidentaly. These are considered bugs and will be removed if found.
Multiple APIs
PyQt4 supports a number of different API versions (QString, QVariant etc.). With the exception of QVariant, PyQt5 only implements v2 of those APIs for all versions of Python. The changed support for QVariant, including the removal of QPyNullVariant, is described in Support for QVariant.
Old-style Signals and Slots
PyQt4’s old-style signals and slots are not supported. Therefore the following are not implemented in PyQt5:
QObject.connect()
QObject.emit()
SIGNAL()
SLOT()
All methods that had arguments that are usually the results of calls to SIGNAL() or SLOT() are no longer supported. There will always be an equivalent that takes a bound signal or callable respectively.
In addition the following methods have differences:
disconnect() takes no arguments and disconnects all connections to the QObject instance.
New-style Signals and Slots
Qt implements signals with an optional argument as two separate signals, one with the argument and one without it. PyQt4 exposed both of these allowing you to connect to each of them. However, when emitting the signal, you had to use the signal appropriate to the number of arguments being emitted.
PyQt5 exposes only the signal where all arguments are specified. However it allows any optional arguments to be omitted when emitting the signal.
Unlike PyQt4, PyQt5 supports the definition of properties, signals and slots in classes not sub-classed from QObject (i.e. in mixins).
QtDeclarative, QtScript and QtScriptTools Modules
PyQt4’s QtDeclarative, QtScript and QtScriptTools modules are not supported. These have been replaced by PyQt5’s QtQml and QtQuick modules. Unlike PyQt4, PyQt5 supports the creation of Python objects from QML.
QtGui Module
PyQt4’s QtGui module has been split into PyQt5’s QtGui, QtPrintSupport and QtWidgets modules.
QtOpenGL Module
Only the QGLContext, QGLFormat and QGLWidget classes are supported by PyQt5.
QtWebKit Module
PyQt4’s QtWebKit module has been split into PyQt5’s QtWebKit and QtWebKitWidgets modules.
QtXml Module
PyQt4’s QtXml module is not supported. Use either the QXMLStreamReader and QXMLStreamWriter classes or Python’s standard XML modules.
pyqtconfig Module
PyQt4’s pyqtconfig module is not supported. The section The PyQt5 Extension API describes the support that PyQt5 provides to third-party packages (e.g. QScintilla) that want to build on top of PyQt5.
dbus.mainloop.qt Module
PyQt4’s dbus.mainloop.qt module is called dbus.mainloop.pyqt5 in PyQt5. This allows them to be installed side by side. Their functionality is identical.
QDataStream
The readUInt8(), readInt8(), writeUInt8() and writeInt8() methods all interpret the values being read and written as numeric values. In PyQt4 they are interpreted as single character strings.
QFileDialog
The getOpenFileNameAndFilter(), getOpenFileNamesAndFilter() and getSaveFileNameAndFilter() methods of PyQt4’s QFileDialog have now been renamed getOpenFileName(),getOpenFileNames() and getSaveFileName() respectively in PyQt5. PyQt4’s implementations of getOpenFileName(), getOpenFileNames() and getSaveFileName() are not supported in PyQt5.
QGraphicsItemAnimation
Support for the deprecated QGraphicsItemAnimation class has been removed. If porting an existing PyQt4 application then consider first updating it to use QPropertyAnimationinstead.
QMatrix
Support for the deprecated QMatrix class has been removed. If porting an existing PyQt4 application then consider first updating it to use QTransform instead.
QPyTextObject
PyQt4 implements the QPyTextObject as a workaround for the inability to define a Python class that is sub-classed from more than one Qt class. PyQt5 does support the ability to define a Python class that is sub-classed from more than one Qt class so long as all but one of the Qt classes are interfaces, i.e. they have been declared in C++ as such usingQ_DECLARE_INTERFACE. Therefore QPyTextObject is not implemented in PyQt5.
QSet
In PyQt4, QSet was implemented as a list in Python v2 and a set in Python v3. In PyQt5 QSet is always implemented as a set.
pyuic5
pyuic5 does not support the --pyqt3-wrapper flag of pyuic4.
pyrcc5
pyrcc5 does not support the -py2 and -py3 flags of pyrcc4. The output of pyrcc5 is compatible with all versions of Python starting with Python v2.6.
Cooperative Multi-inheritance
Unlike PyQt4, PyQt5 classes implement cooperative multi-inheritance. In other words PyQt5 classes always do the equivalent of the following Python v3 code in their __init__methods (where kwds is a dictionary of unused keyword arguments):
super().__init__(**kwds)
This means that those unused keyword arguments are passed to the __init__ methods of any mixin classes. Those mixin classes must cooperate, i.e. they must make a similar call if they have their own __init__ implementations.
When using multiple inheritance in PyQt4 it is common to call the __init__ methods of the super-classes explicitly, for example:
classMyQObject(QObject,MyMixin):def__init__(self,parent,mixin_arg):QObject.__init__(self,parent)MyMixin.__init__(self,mixin_arg)# Other initialisation...
In PyQt5 the above would cause MyMixin.__init__ to be called twice. Instead it should be implemented as follows:
classMyQObject(QObject,MyMixin):def__init__(self,**kwds):super().__init__(**kwds)# Other initialisation...
Note that if there is no other initialisation to do then the __init__ method isn’t actually needed.
The mixin class should be implemented as follows:
classMyMixin:def__init__(self,mixin_arg,**kwds):super().__init__(**kwds)# Other initialisation...
If a class only inherits from a single class then it can still call the super-class’s __init__ method explicitly (although it is recommended to use super()).
See Support for Cooperative Multi-inheritance.
Releasing the GIL
The GIL is only released when it is known to be needed. PyQt4 always released the GIL when calling Qt.
Object Destruction on Exit
When the Python interpreter exits PyQt4 (by default) calls the C++ destructor of all wrapped instances that it owns. This happens in a random order and can therefore cause the interpreter to crash. This behavior can be disabled by calling the sip.setdestroyonexit() function.
PyQt5 always calls sip.setdestroyonexit() automatically. However if the wrapped instances have not been created at the module level and have instead been created in a function then the problem will still exist. For example, do not do the following:
我在manjaro上遇到此错误ImportError: cannot import name ''QtCore'' from ''PyQt4'',因此我尝试安装PyQt4,但出现此错误
/Scaricati/PyQt4_gpl_x11-4.12.3 $ python configure-ng.py Querying qmake about your Qt installation... Determining the details of your Qt installation... This is the GPL version of PyQt 4.12.3 (licensed under the GNU General Public License) for Python 3.8.5 on linux. Error: This version of PyQt4 and the commercial version of Qt have incompatible licenses.
