    Question what's wrong with my setEchoMode code

    I create a QLineEdit in PyQt, and i want to hide or show the charactor of password, so i use the code below
    Here is my login_ui py file login.py, you can use it to test my code within the py or import it from other py.
    Qt Code:
    1. #in the init function, ck_pwd and ck_pay_pwd are QCheckBox, password and pay_password are QLineEdit
    2. def init(self):
    3. QtCore.QObject.connect(self.login_ui.ck_pwd, QtCore.SIGNAL("stateChanged(int)"), lambda : self.show_or_hide_pass(self.login_ui.password))
    4. QtCore.QObject.connect(self.login_ui.ck_pay_pwd, QtCore.SIGNAL("stateChanged(int)"), lambda : self.show_or_hide_pass(self.login_ui.pay_password))
    5.  
    6.  
    7. def show_or_hide_pass(self, password_obj):
    8. if password_obj.EchoMode()!=QtGui.QLineEdit.Normal:
    9. print 'normal'
    10. password_obj.setEchoMode(QtGui.QLineEdit.Normal)
    11. else:
    12. print 'password'
    13. password_obj.setEchoMode(QtGui.QLineEdit.Password)
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    but in the function show_or_hide_pass, the password_obj.EchoMode() always be the 0 (value of QtGui.QLineEdit.Normal), it doesn't make any sense.
    what's wrong with my code, Is there somebody can help?

    Line 8, the property name is echoMode() not EchoMode().

  3. The following user says thank you to ChrisW67 for this useful post:

    Perhaps PyChecker or Pylint would have flagged this for you.
