Description Daniele Esposti 2012-01-23 11:40:24 EET

QObject.trUtf8() is not a static function as defined by official Qt
documentation

Comment 1 Paulo Alcantara 2012-01-26 21:14:05 EET

Hi Daniele,

Even in PyQt there is no such static version of QObject.trUtf8() function. This
is why when invoking either QObject.tr() or QObject.trUtf8() they need to give
their object name (for e.g., the string constant "QObject") to the first
argument of QCoreApplication.instance().translate(), which is the context upon
which we're leading with. So there's no way to make neither QObject.tr() nor
QObject.trUtf8() a static function (without a context to be given to the
QCoreApplication.instance().translate() function).

Anyway, thanks for the report.

Marking this bug as WONTFIX for now.
