Subclassing builtins is always a recipe for trouble, because the C implementation doesn't necessarily call your Python methods. You should probably use collections.UserDict or collections.abc.(Mutable)Mapping instead: https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.html#collections.UserDict https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.abc.html#collections.abc.Mapping Florian -- http://www.the-compiler.org | m...@the-compiler.org (Mail/XMPP) GPG: 916E B0C8 FD55 A072 | http://the-compiler.org/pubkey.asc I love long mails! | http://email.is-not-s.ms/
