Re: [Python-Dev] PyDict_Get/SetItem and dict subclasses

Hi Victor,

PyDict_GetItem() and PyDict_SetItem() 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
