hi,

i've got a QWidget with some lineedits, a "cancel" button and an "apply" button.

i connect the "clicked()" signal to the QWidget like this:

Qt Code: 
  1. self.connect(self.__apply_button, QtCore.SIGNAL("clicked()"), QtCore.SIGNAL("apply_clicked"))
  2. self.connect(self.__cancel_button, QtCore.SIGNAL("clicked()"), QtCore.SIGNAL("cancel_clicked"))
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

when ths signal is sent, i want to forward a signal to the parent of the QWidget (__mywidget) which is of the type QObject.

at the parent i listen to the signals of my QWidget

Qt Code: 
  1. self.connect(self.__mywidget, QtCore.SIGNAL("apply_clicked"), self.__handle_apply)
  2. self.connect(self.__mywidget, QtCore.SIGNAL("cancel_clicked"), self.__handle_cancel)
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

the problem is, i never receive the signal from __mywidget. __handle_apply and __handle_cancel are custom slots of course

i also tried to emit a signal manually from __mywidget but it doesn't work either.

NOTE: please consider this is python syntax. should be syntactically ok.

any ideas? what do i have to consider when connecting to signals?
i'm completely clueless, what im doing wrong there.

thanks, chris
