<p>Note that There are no plans for the standard <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">dbus-python</span></tt> language bindings
package to be ported to Python v3 and so it is recommended that new
applications use the <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">QtDBus</span></tt> module instead.</p>
<p>The DBus support module is installed as <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">dbus.mainloop.qt</span></tt> and provides
support for the Qt event loop to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">dbus-python</span></tt>.  The module&#8217;s API is almost
identical to that of the <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">dbus.mainloop.glib</span></tt> modules that provides
support for the GLib event loop.</p>
<p>The <tt class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">dbus.mainloop.qt</span></tt> module contains the following function.</p>
<dl class="function">
<dt id="DBusQtMainLoop">
<tt class="descname">DBusQtMainLoop</tt><big>(</big><em>set_as_default=False</em><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#DBusQtMainLoop" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt>

loop.</p>

<col class="field-body" />
<tbody valign="top">
