I am trying to embed resources to my PyQt4 application.
However when I import the resource file that I create by using included pyrcc.exe I came accross encoding errors.
Pyrcc already adds the UTF-8 encoding line on top of the file as this was the common error I have seen online.
SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xff' in file ... on line 1, but no encoding declared; see http://python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/ for details
As I have checked the error link it recommends to add encoding line to the file which I already have
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Resource object code

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks !
