Wrong type warning when working with dictionary Follow
Answered
Consider this very simple python example:
def b():
"""
:rtype: dict[str, int]
"""
return {"b": 1}
a = b()
a["test"] = "test"
The last line gives me this error
Expected type 'int' (matched generic type '_VT'), got 'str' instead
which is not correct in my opinion. Is there any workaround for this. I don't like to specify ` :rtype: dict[str, int | str]` in function because it is incorrect.

Hi,
It seems to be known issue https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-33201, please vote for it and follow for updates.
I get the same error on a very similar piece of code, but I'm not sure the YouTrack issue reflects this as I'm not using TypeVars
Line 3: Expected type 'None' (matched generic type '_VT'), got 'int' instead)
foo = {}foo['a'] = {'b': None}
foo['a']['b'] = 1
Replacing None by a number resolves the issue.
