I want to use pyqt4 on python35. However, the latest official release supports py=<34 So I found this university website https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyqt4 which unofficially extended support for later versions including python35
My problem is that QsciScintilla is not working. I tried to run this code:
import sys
from PyQt4.QtGui import QApplication
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui, Qsci
from PyQt4.Qsci import QsciScintilla
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
editor = QsciScintilla()
editor.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
The window becomes unresponsive then crashes:
Process finished with exit code -1073740771 (0xC000041D)
The reason I want to use pyqt4 on python3.5 is that I have a quit big application built on pyqt4 and I want to upgrade python version of the project to 35
I moved to PyQt5. It is always not a good idea to use an unofficial package.
