QListWidget findChild Return Value

[John Thornton]

When trying to find out if a QListWidget is loaded with

if self.findChild(QListWidget, "listWidget"):

it returns False even though the widget is present.

if I test for not None I get True

if self.findChild(QListWidget, "listWidget") is not None:

I can't find any other widget that fails to be found by name.

I asked the question on stackoverflow
