[Qgis-developer] Cleanly create memory layer in Python?

[Chris Crook]

Hi All

I'm wanting to create a memory provider in Python without invoking the CRS selection dialog (even if the QGIS settings are set to "Prompt for CRS when a new layer is created".

At the moment my code looks like:

        settings = QSettings()
        prjSetting = settings.value("/Projections/defaultBehaviour") 
        settings.setValue("/Projections/defaultBehaviour", QVariant(""))
        layer = QgsVectorLayer("point",name,"memory")
        if prjSetting:
            settings.setValue("/Projections/defaultBehaviour",prjSetting)

This does work, but it seems a bit cumbersome (at first glance it doesn't even look like creating a vector layer!), so I'm wondering if there is a cleaner approach..

Cheers
Chris
