checking and adding into combobox

Karoluss96

Hi everyone,

I need to add into combobox a year (from line_edit).
I inspired by the link below:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7479915/getting-all-items-of-qcombobox-pyqt4-python
but the difference in my problem is that: I need add ONLY IF put in line_edit doesn't exist. eg.

Now the combox have records: [2017, 2018,2020,2021,2022,2023,2025,2030]
So if I put in line_edit: 2024 It put to combobox because isn't in it/
But accoring to code form link above, f I put in line_edit: 2023 it also add to combobox, wheras isn't need as this year appear in combobox.

I've try sth like that:

year = self.dlg.lineEdit_13.text()
Allyear = [self.dlg.comboBox_14.itemText(i) for i in range(self.dlg.comboBox_14.count())] #from attached link
if year != Allyear:
            self.dlg.comboBox_14.addItem(year)

Thanks for every help!

@Karoluss96 Did you do any debugging?
What is the value of Allyear and what is the value of year?

@jsulm debug without bug.

Allyear are all records from combobox: ['2017', '2018', '2019', '2020', '2021', '2022', '2023', '2025', '2030']

year is 2023

@Karoluss96 said in checking and adding into combobox:

if year != Allyear:

Shouldn't this be:

if not year in Allyear:

?

@Karoluss96
Allyear is a list/array. year is a single value. year != Allyear will always be true.

@jsulm Yes it works. Thanks!
