pybind11 / pyside2 / c++qt... oh dear

Dariusz

Hey

I don't even know how to wrap my head around it but maybe some1 can help.

I have a c++ app in Qt that has window/text editor, in that editor I'll put stuff like

from PySide2.QtWidgets import *
app = QApplication([""])
w = QWidget()
w.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

And run that inside pybind11/python... now great it works 1st time. 2nd time it crashes, but we can skip it for now... what I wonder is... should I pass my C++ QApplication to pybind11-python somehow so my pyside2 reuses existing application - thus allowing for the widgets to interact with each other ?

If so, how ?

Regards

Hi,

You should provide a minimal compilable example showing your issue.

There's an example of application making use of the two in this blog article.
