how to create windows 7 jump lists via python/pyqt?

Question

i have a pyqt project which i'm interested in using to play around with the new windows 7 jump list feature. after a bunch of searching, i have not found any specific examples of anyone creating jumplists via python.

has anyone here found an easy way to hook into this? does mark hammond's pywin32 module have an appropriate wrapper?

thanks!

Answer 1

I don't think Qt supports jump lists, you can find a bit more info here

Qt 4.6 added support for windows 7 and it was released today but I don't think they added this specific feature and I don't think PyQt supports this release.

Answer 2

There is a Qt add-on that implements all the Windows 7 taskbar extensions. It is called Q7Goodies. Although, it is a C++ library, I suggest contacting the authors, maybe they provide a PyQt bindings too.
