GLib.VariantDict.prototype.lookup_value
function lookup_value(key: String, expected_type: GLib.VariantType): GLib.Variant { // Gjs wrapper for g_variant_dict_lookup_value() }
Looks up a value in a GLib.VariantDict.
If key is not found in @dictionary, null is returned.
The expected_type string specifies what type of value is expected. If the value associated with key has a different type then null is returned.
If the key is found and the value has the correct type, it is returned. If expected_type was specified then any non-null return value will have this type.
