easygui_qt.demos "Error importing PyQt5" #34

Closed melellington closed 3 years ago

melellington commented 3 years ago

All buttons in the demo give me the error:

Error importing PyQt5. Have you installed it? could not find function get_int

I am running Python version 3.9.0

imac:~ mel$ python -V Python 3.9.0

Look at the bottom of your screenshot: it shows that you are running Python version 2.7.

Note that I have not been working on this project for a few years now and I have very little free time to investigate problems.

If you look at the top of my screenshot My terminal command "python -V" shows I am running version 3.9.0.

Your demo code has a bug in it which forces it to run version 2.7.
overriding my default version 3.9.0.

Perhaps your code cannot handle newer versions of Python such as 3.9.0?

As I wrote in https://github.com/aroberge/easygui_qt/blob/master/setup.py, it was intended to run with Python 3, not Python 2. I did almost all my testing exclusively with Python 3.

The code on https://github.com/aroberge/easygui_qt/blob/master/easygui_qt/demos/launcher.py#L28 launches the default Python interpreter: it certainly does not force it to run a different version.

I don't have a mac but based on what I have read elsewhere, I suspect that, if you replace python by python3 on that line, the demo will work correctly on your computer.
