twisted.python.util.InsensitiveDict class documentation

Part of twisted.python.util (View In Hierarchy)

Dictionary, that has case-insensitive keys.

Normally keys are retained in their original form when queried with .keys() or .items(). If initialized with preserveCase=0, keys are both looked up in lowercase and returned in lowercase by .keys() and .items().

Method __init__ Create an empty dictionary, or update from 'dict'.
Method __delitem__ Undocumented
Method __getitem__ Retrieve the value associated with 'key' (in any case).
Method __setitem__ Associate 'value' with 'key'. If 'key' already exists, but in different case, it will be replaced.
Method has_key Case insensitive test whether 'key' exists.
Method keys List of keys in their original case.
Method values List of values.
Method items List of (key,value) pairs.
Method get Retrieve value associated with 'key' or return default value if 'key' doesn't exist.
Method setdefault If 'key' doesn't exist, associate it with the 'default' value. Return value associated with 'key'.
Method update Copy (key,value) pairs from 'dict'.
Method __repr__ String representation of the dictionary.
Method iterkeys Undocumented
Method itervalues Undocumented
Method iteritems Undocumented
Method popitem Undocumented
Method clear Undocumented
Method copy Undocumented
Method __len__ Undocumented
Method __eq__ Undocumented
Method _lowerOrReturn Undocumented
Method _doPreserve Undocumented
