Can't call methods on objects in pyObjC

When I call setDelegate_ within my pyObjC code I get an AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'setDelegate_'.

My Code looks like this:

def createMovie(self):
        attribs = NSMutableDictionary.dictionary()
        attribs['QTMovieFileNameAttribute'] = '<My Filename>'
        movie = QTMovie.alloc().initWithAttributes_error_(attribs, objc.nil)
        movie.setDelegate_(self)

Edit

I Found out that i can't use any instance methods with the movie object.

Solution

  • From your comment, it looks like QTMovie.alloc().initWithAttributes_error_ actually returns a two-element tuple, with the object you want as first element and some other object in the second element (possibly an error ?)

    You should be able to access your object like that:

    (movie, error) = QTMovie.alloc().initWithAttributes_error_(attribs, objc.nil)
