    Default embed Python in Qt C++ program and use signals/slots

    I want to embed Python in my Qt c++ project so that I can run Python scripts within the main Qt C++ program.

    I have several c++ QObject-derived classes that emit signals. I would like have these c++ objects exposed in Python-side so that I can create Python classes with slots connected to signals that are emitted from c++.

    Is this possible ? I don't necessary need a full solution but some pointers on where to start. Thanks!

    Thanks!

    I read that.. very good info!

    But something was missing. I couldn't find any info about how to 'glue' a signal emitted from "c++" side into an object living in Python script runtime.

    You should really try that Google thing. This is for PyQt4; PyQt5 supports the new style of signal / slot connections as well as the old style.
