[PySide] subclassing dict to connect to QT signal

[Frank Rueter | OHUfx]

Hi all,

I am trying to subclass dict in order to connect it to a QT signal which 
will create a value in a predetermined key.

This is what I got:

class CustomDict(dict):
     '''Container for a simple version dictionary to be able to connect 
a signal to it'''

     def setData(self, data):
         self['my_custom_data'] = data


However, when I try to connect the setData method I get this:

worker.receivedData.connect(customDict.setData)

TypeError: unhashable type: 'CustomDict'


Can somebody help me understand what's going on?

Cheers,
frank
