Dictionary issue

[andydandy74]

Has something changed regarding the way dictionaries are treated compared to 0.6.3?
I am trying to migrate some Python code to 0.7 which - since there's no interaction whatsoever with the Revit API - in theory should not need any massaging at all. Instead I get this warning:

Warning: IronPythonEvaluator.EvaluateIronPythonScript operation failed. 
'string' does not contain a definition for 'Key'

@holyjewsus - I know you've been working with Python dictionaries as well. Any thoughts?

tracked internal as 5108, this is a known issue, at this time my suggestion is to wrap up the dictionary inside of another object with a dict field, if you need to move dictionaries around the graph, then unwrap it in another node.

You can also do this with CBNS: which might be useful...

I believe this has been addressed in this PR #9296
