Thanks for your help.

I did notice that documentation. However I though QColor(value, value,
value).rgb() would return a QRgb instance. I notice this also in the
documentation.

"""
void rgb(int *r, int *g, int *b);

This takes no parameters and returns the r, g and b values as a tuple.
"""


So does this mean the

QRgb QColor::rgb () const 

function is not implemented because void rgb(int *r, int *g, int *b) which
takes no parameters takes over instead?

I try the following:

grayColorMap = []
for i in range(256):
    grayColorMap.append(qRgb(i, i, i))

grayColorMap = []
for i in range(256):
    grayColorMap.append(QColor(i, i, i).rgb())

It likes the first one, but not the second one. It gives.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./testQColor.py", line 21, in ?
    image = QImage(buffer, 2, 2, 8, grayColorMap, 256, QImage.IgnoreEndian)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/qt.py", line 439, in __init__
    libqtc.sipCallCtor(123,self,args)
TypeError: an integer is required


I must admit that qRgb(r,g,b) is better than making a QColor(r,g,b) and
calling rgb() on it, so it isn't that big of a deal for me at the moment.
