Fixes #1192.
Summarize your change.
We introduce a new
App
library which is used to create and access the application instance. This replaces our use ofQtGui.qApp
for the same purpose.This allows us to avoid the
no attribute 'qApp'
error that's been a regular occurrence for a long time and has recently start causing consistent CI pipeline failures. See #1192 for more details.Many classes now store the instance as
self.app
which looks a bit cleaner and in several modules allows us to avoid importing the wholeQtGui
module just to access the application instance.With the new library, lint is now able to trace
CueGuiApplication
references back to the actual class, so we're able to remove a ton ofdisable=no-member
rules that were everywhere in that code. Also a fewdisable=attribute-defined-outside-init
rules. There are still somedisable=no-member
rules left due to lint's inability to follow PySide signals, but that will have to be handled separately.
