Instead, an error in generated suggesting that a second argument needs to be passed to the function. On adding a second argument, the error further suggests that it needs to be a string. On using a string, the following error is generated: TypeError: can't convert return value to desired type ../pathtolens/lens.py:100: Warning: g_object_get_qdata: assertion G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed GObject.MainLoop().run() ../pathtolens/lens.py:100: Warning: g_object_set_qdata_full: assertionG_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed GObject.MainLoop().run() ../pathtolens/lens.py:100: Warning: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed GObject.MainLoop().run() Similar errors are generated when using other "Unity.Handletype"s (although using NOT_HANDLED only produces the TypeError part, not any of the warnings.)
