I have a class A that i'm wrapping with SIP. The class inherits from a bunch of other classes. One of the classes it inherits from also in turn inherits from QWidget. When I import the created module, whenever I call a method that is meant to return an instance of class A I get a QWidget instead. I can use sip.cast to get the QWidget back to an A instance, but that's not a very friendly solution.
Can someone suggest why this is happening, or how to fix it?

SIP needs to know the correct run-time type of your class: otherwise when it receives a QWidget* it cannot know what type the class really is.

Have a look at how %ConvertToSubClassCode is implemented in QtCore/qobject.sip and QtGui/qapplication.sip (assuming you're using Qt4). Within your a.sip, you must add your own %ConvertToSubClassCode that verifies if a generic QObject* is an instance of your type (class A). SIP then knows how to "chain" all the other %ConvertToSubClassCode in the object hierarchy, so your code needs only to verify your own class.
