[Python-Dev] PyDict_Get/SetItem and dict subclasses (original) (raw)

Hi Victor,

PyDictGetItem() and PyDictSetItem() don't call getitem and setitem for dict subclasses. Is there a reason for that?

http://bugs.python.org/issue10977 “Currently, the concrete object C API bypasses any methods defined on subclasses of builtin types.”

Cheers
