Hello list,
just tried the new 3.1a1 release and its 2to3 script
on a simple program of mine.
The program uses a type check recipe from activestate.
The recipe uses 'types.FileType' which is no longer present
in 'types' in 3.1a1.
2to3 does not fix and gives no warning.
I found these comments in Misc/HISTORY
3.0a2:
- Removed all types from the 'types' module that are easily accessable
through builtins.
3.0a1:
- Removed these Python builtins: apply(), callable(), coerce(),
execfile(), file(), reduce(), reload().
and I could not find a replacement for 'FileType'.
Has this been overlooked?
Found this thread which does not mention FileType:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/stdlib-sig/2008-April/thread.html#172
I guess I just did not see something simple.
Anyone with a hint?
Regards,
Matthias Kievernagel
