OK, I implement QListView.itemData() returning a python dict, which then arrives at QListView.setItemData() as a QVariant of length 1. The problem is, how to cast that qv back to a dict? I have read
http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/PyQt4/html/qvariant.html and noted especially the .convert method, but qv.convert(dict) produces the amusingly self-referential error, TypeError: QVariant.convert(Type): argument 1 has unexpected type 'type' dict(qv) doesn't do it. qv.toHash produces an empty dict. qv.toMap produces a QMap with the original keys as QStrings and the original data as QVariants. OK, but I'd rather have the python dict -- is there a way to get it, or do I have to work with the QMap form?
