Description Lang Sharpe 2011-11-28 06:43:33 EET

The path returned by QLibraryPath is incorrect, if an Application hasn't been
created.


import sys
from PySide.QtCore import *
print QLibraryInfo.location(QLibraryInfo.BinariesPath)

Outputs: C:\Qt\4.7.4\bin


import sys
from PySide.QtCore import *
from PySide.QtGui import *
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
print QLibraryInfo.location(QLibraryInfo.BinariesPath)

Outputs: C:/Python27/Lib/site-packages/PySide , which is correct.

This is useful for executing one of the programs in a Cross Platform manner.

Need further investigation to check if there's something on PySide side that
can be done to fix it or if it's just a Qt behavior due to the way Qt libraries
is loaded when PySide modules are loaded.
