I'm taking my first steps in writing a plugin for QGIS by following this tutorial: http://www.qgisworkshop.org/html/workshop/plugins_tutorial.html
There is not even any functionality in this code, just setting up the plugin already fails.
I have already taken out a few errors that came with the limited imports that are now standard loaded with the plugin-builder plugin, but when i try to load this plugin it gives me the error :
AttributeError: TRYOUT instance has no attribute 'handleMouseDown'
I found this bit of info, but i can't get that to work either.
Can anybody point me in the right direction of what i'm doing wrong?
