PySide: Connecting QComboBox indices with strings

? Offline

I would like to connect the QComboBox indeces with specific strings (i.e. when I select "A", I want that it prints "A has been selected", and when I select "B", then "B has been selected").

I am new to PySide and learning, so I am sure there exists a simple solution. Help is appreciated.

@from PySide import QtGui

class Widget(QtGui.QWidget):

    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        super().__init__(parent)

        v_global_layout = QtGui.QVBoxLayout()

        method_selection = QtGui.QComboBox()
        method_selection.addItem("A")
        method_selection.addItem("B")

        v_global_layout.addWidget(method_selection)
        self.setLayout(v_global_layout)

        def do_somethinh():
            print("A has been selected!!!")
        method_selection.activated.connect(do_somethinh)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    import sys
    app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)

    main_window = Widget()
    main_window.setGeometry(100, 100, 640, 480)
    main_window.show()

    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Thsnk you!

I also found another way to do it:

@def do_somethinh(text):
print(text, "has been selected!!!")
method_selection.activated[str].connect(do_somethinh)@
