On a school assignment, I starting a pyqt project and quite new to this.
I would like to display a label inside a pyqt5 app but facing a ASCII string or bytes error , any ideas ?
import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QPushButton, QLabel
from PyQt5.QtCore import pyqtSlot
class App(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.title = 'title'
self.left = 10
self.top = 10
self.width = 640
self.height = 480
self.initUI()
def initUI(self):
self.setWindowTitle(self.title)
self.setGeometry(self.left, self.top, self.width, self.height)
self.labl = QLabel(self)
self.labl.setText('abc')
button = QPushButton('button', self)
button.move(170,300)
button.clicked.connect(self.on_click)
self.show()
@pyqtSlot
def on_click():
self.labl = QLabel(self)
self.labl.setText('abc')
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
ex = App()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
This is the error I do see in the Console
builtins.TypeError: bytes or ASCII string expected not 'function'
>Solution :
resolved
fixed this to @pyqtSlot() and def on_click(self):
import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QPushButton, QLabel
from PyQt5.QtCore import pyqtSlot
class App(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.title = 'title'
self.left = 10
self.top = 10
self.width = 640
self.height = 480
self.initUI()
def initUI(self):
self.setWindowTitle(self.title)
self.setGeometry(self.left, self.top, self.width, self.height)
self.labl = QLabel(self)
self.labl.setText('abc')
button = QPushButton('button', self)
button.move(170,300)
button.clicked.connect(self.on_click)
self.show()
@pyqtSlot()
def on_click(self):
self.labl = QLabel(self)
self.labl.setText('abc')
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
ex = App()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
