Motivation
Added support for dictionary-like operations directly on
ProcessingModule
objects. Currently, users need to access thedata_interfaces
attribute to get information about the module's contents (e.g.,len(module.data_interfaces)
). This PR implements dictionary-like methods onProcessingModule
itself, making the API more intuitive and consistent with Python's container conventions.This implements the feature requested in #1993 to support operations like
len(processing_module)
directly.How to test the behavior?
