Brett Cannon 62961dde31 Issue #13959: Document imp.find_module/load_module as deprecated.
The code itself does not raise a DeprecationWarning as the functions
are technically fine, it's just a bad API. Unfortunately experience
has shown that the terrible API has been exposed in various places,
necessitating that it stick around probably until py4k comes around
since it is such a shift to move over to importlib.find_loader().

Brett Cannon ee78a2b51c Issue #13959: Introduce importlib.find_loader().
The long-term goal is to deprecate imp.find_module() in favour of this
API, but it will take some time as some APIs explicitly return/use what
imp.find_module() returns.

Antoine Pitrou 424246fbf3 Issue #14082: shutil.copy2() now copies extended attributes, if possible.
Patch by Hynek Schlawack.

Brett Cannon c049952de7 Issue #13959: Have
importlib.abc.FileLoader.load_module()/get_filename() and
importlib.machinery.ExtensionFileLoader.load_module() have their
single argument be optional as the loader's constructor has all the
ncessary information.

This allows for the deprecation of
imp.load_source()/load_compile()/load_package().

Brett Cannon 0c59b039b8 Deprecate the imp constants related to imp.get_suffixes(). 2012-05-11 14:27:29 -04:00
Brett Cannon cb66eb0dec Issue #13959: Deprecate imp.get_suffixes() for new attributes on
importlib.machinery that provide the suffix details for import.
The attributes were not put on imp so as to compartmentalize
everything importlib needs for setting up imports in
importlib.machinery.

This also led to an indirect deprecation of inspect.getmoduleinfo() as
it directly returned imp.get_suffix's returned tuple which no longer
makes sense.

Richard Oudkerk 59d5404bc7 Issue #14753: Make multiprocessing treat negative timeouts as it did in 3.2
In Python 3.2 and earlier, Process.join() and Connection.poll()
treated negative timeouts as zero timeouts.  Earlier versions from
the 3.3 line of development treat them as infinite timeouts.

The patch reverts to the old behaviour.

Removed futimens as it is now redundant.

and ns= parameter to utime--it once again preserves exact metadata on Linux!
