[Qgis-developer] iterating over fields an values API 2.0

[PIERRE Sylvain]

Yes!
That's it

Thanks

PS: Don't you think it should be clearly documented in the pyqgis cookbook?

You have not set SIP api to version 2 to QString, QVariant and other Qt classes. QGIS python package tries to do that automatically for you, but if you imported PyQt4 python modules before QGIS python modules, that will not work. You have two options:
1. move import of QGIS module before PyQt4 2. keep the order of imports as is, but put these lines before import of PyQt4:
import sip
sip.setapi("QString", 2)
sip.setapi("QVariant", 2)


This is only necessary in standalone applications - inside QGIS application this initialization is done before any plugins are loaded, so this issue does not come up. Probably in qgis __init__.py there should be some code checking if there are not Qt classes imported with API v1 - in such case we could throw an exception.
