That's really great :) I am only wondering if the current Q_ARG
behaviour is intendend that way (see example below).

Besides is it possible to invoke a method which returns an unwrapped
C++ object? Getting an QObject would be ok, because I could use
invokeMethod on that object too.

I am asking because I am working as a GSoC project[1] on a Python
plug-in in a C++ application. Currently I have my own invokeMethod
implementation and I would love to get rid of it because it would
greatly simplify the code and removes build dependencies on sip.

BTW: Is there any reason why QObject.staticMetaObject() is not available?

Henning

lbl = QLabel(None)
# Works:
lbl.metaObject().invokeMethod(lbl, "setText", Q_ARG("QString", "Test"))
## Does not work:
#lbl.metaObject().invokeMethod(lbl, "setText", Q_ARG("QString",
QString("Test")))
lbl.show()
app.exec_()
