I think any option to help when accessing PyQGIS the better.

On a similar side note, not sure what Python editor you use, but with Eric4
(and its mini editor) you could also have auto-completion of the PyQGIS
methods, etc if there was a QScintilla API file generated with the sip '-a
<output api file>' option as well. I don't believe QScintilla even needs to
be installed.

However, I have not been able to get the -a option to work when adding to
the SIP_EXTRA_OPTIONS, fails on compile. Have you (or anyone else) tried
this in addtion to the -o flag?


Regards,
