Description Dan Clementi 2011-02-12 15:43:10 EET

In PyQt4, the below example will return all widgets of the desired type:    
  all_checkboxes = self.ui.tabWidget.findChildren(QCheckBox)
If I do the same in PySide, an error is thrown that two arguments are expected. 

So, if I explicitly enter a string there, for example:
  all_checkboxes = self.ui.tabWidget.findChildren(QCheckBox,"checkBox_1")
the specified checkbox will be returned.  

But, I am not seeing any way to return either:
a) all children of that widget type or
b) some children of that widget type with a wildcard, as the PySide version
won't accept a QRegExp as the second argument.
