Python indentation error:

Question

I have tried notepad++ and eclipse but even then , it is showing me an indentation error at line 18. I don\'t know, why it is throwing me an error like that...? please help

Answer 1

In such cases it is usually a good idea to run python with the -t flag:

-t : issue warnings about inconsistent tab usage (-tt: issue errors)

This will help to find indentation problems caused by accidentally used tabs.

Answer 2

The row

     self.verticalLayout.addWidget(self.lineEdit)

should be on the same level of the other rows.

You might be missing it because your editor mixes tabs and spaces.

If you click on "edit" in your own question, you'll see that this row is not correctly indented.

It is your quotes for example on line:

self.lineEdit.setText(’My Generic Device Name’)

try this:

from brisa.core.reactors.qtreactor import QtReactor
reactor = QtReactor()
from brisa.core import config
from brisa.upnp.device import Device
from brisa.upnp.device.service import Service, StateVariable

     def __init__(self):

         QtGui.QWidget.__init__(self)
         self.verticalLayout = QtGui.QVBoxLayout(self)
         self.title = QtGui.QLabel("Qt Simple Device")
         font = QtGui.QFont()
         font.setPointSize(15)
         self.title.setFont(font)
         self.title.setAlignment(QtCore.Qt.AlignCenter)
         self.verticalLayout.addWidget(self.title)
         self.lineEdit = QtGui.QLineEdit(self)
         self.verticalLayout.addWidget(self.lineEdit)
         self.search_btn = QtGui.QPushButton("Start Device", self)

     main()   

Answer 4

It looks like you're using the wrong single quote mark. You need to use ', not ’.

Not sure if this is your problem though.
