Description

I've checked the API docs and the API change log and QgsVectorLayer has a getFeatures() method but when I try to call this from my script (excerpt below) I get an attribute error.

rect = QgsRectangle(x-rad,y-rad,x+rad,y+rad)
layer = iface.activeLayer()
wind = layer.getFeatures(QgsFeatureRequest().setFilterRect(rect))

.. results in traceback ..

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/.. ../python/plugins\\scriptrunner\\scriptrunner.py", line 481, in run_script
user_script.run_script(self.iface)
File "C:/.. ..\\LayerIteratorTest.py", line 44, in run_script
wind = iface.activeLayer().getFeatures(QgsFeatureRequest().setFilterRect(rect))
AttributeError: 'QgsVectorLayer' object has no attribute 'getFeatures'

I'm using QGIS 1.8.0 Lisboa and Python 2.7 and Script Runner plugin 0.71 on Windows 7 Professional querying data from a shapefile layer. Information about version and build below:
