dictionary inherit and method overriding

[fdb]

Hi all,

I need to extend and not replace the __getitem__ method of a dict class.

Here is sample the code:
.... def __getitem__(self, y):
.... print("Doing something")
.... dict.__getitem__(self, y)
....

a=myDict()
a["value"] = 1
print a["value"]

None

As you see i get None instead of 1.

Any solutions?

Bye
