SQL widgets in QT4-designer?

[Loki9]

Hi-

I'm new to Qt and I'm trying to build a application (in Python) that will pull data from a MySQL DB. I'm trying to use Qt4 Designer to build a form where I will have a table populated from the DB. Looking at Qt3 docs, it seems that I could have dropped a widget like QDataTable onto my form, but this has changed in Qt4 and I can't figure out how to proceed. Some docs have pointed me to using QDataWidgetMapper, but I can't find this in Qt4 Designer?? When I search for help I find nice tutorials to do what I want, but only using Qt3.

Note that I'm not using Qt Creator, rather I'm using Qt Designer from within eric4.

Thanks for any help!

Hi Jeff,

I'm quite new to Qt as well, but I am currently working on a very similar project.
It seems the most straightforward approach is to populate a QTableView widget, row by row.

Take a look at the SQL Browser tutorial included in Qt 4.7 or "here":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/demos-sqlbrowser.html

Best of luck,

Tim

Thanks Tim, I'll try that approach.
