Deprecate passing optional arguments maxsplit, count and flags in
module-level functions re.split(), re.sub() and re.subn() as positional.
They should only be passed by keyword.
* Add PyDict_GetItemRef() and PyDict_GetItemStringRef() functions.
Add these functions to the stable ABI version 3.13.
* Add unit tests on the PyDict C API in test_capi.
Schedule the removal of C API global configuration variables in
Python 3.14. Announce the removal to help C extension maintainers to
upgrade their code.
Remove the "cpython/pytime.h" header file: it only contained private
functions. Move functions to the internal pycore_time.h header file.
Move tests from _testcapi to _testinternalcapi. Rename also test
methods to have the same name than tested C functions.
No longer export these functions:
* _PyTime_Add()
* _PyTime_As100Nanoseconds()
* _PyTime_FromMicrosecondsClamp()
* _PyTime_FromTimespec()
* _PyTime_FromTimeval()
* _PyTime_GetPerfCounterWithInfo()
* _PyTime_MulDiv()
PyTuple_SET_ITEM() and PyList_SET_ITEM() now check the index argument
with an assertion if Python is built in debug mode or is built with
assertions.
* list_extend() and _PyList_AppendTakeRef() now set the list size
before calling PyList_SET_ITEM().
* PyStructSequence_GetItem() and PyStructSequence_SetItem() now check
the index argument: must be lesser than REAL_SIZE(op).
* PyStructSequence_GET_ITEM() and PyStructSequence_SET_ITEM() are now
aliases to PyStructSequence_GetItem() and
PyStructSequence_SetItem().
Brings `pathlib.Path.is_dir()` and `in line with `os.DirEntry.is_dir()`, which
will be important for implementing generic path walking and globbing.
Likewise `is_file()`.
Remove old aliases which were kept backwards compatibility with
Python 3.8:
* _PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodOneArg()
* _PyObject_CallOneArg()
* _PyObject_FastCallDict()
* _PyObject_Vectorcall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethod()
* _PyVectorcall_Function()
Update code which used these aliases to use new names.
This new exception type is raised instead of `NotImplementedError` when
a path operation is not supported. It can be raised from `Path.readlink()`,
`symlink_to()`, `hardlink_to()`, `owner()` and `group()`. In a future
version of pathlib, it will be raised by `AbstractPath` for these methods
and others, such as `AbstractPath.mkdir()` and `unlink()`.
* Add tests on PyImport_AddModuleRef(), PyImport_AddModule() and
PyImport_AddModuleObject().
* pythonrun.c: Replace Py_XNewRef(PyImport_AddModule(name)) with
PyImport_AddModuleRef(name).
Deprecate two methods of creating typing.TypedDict classes with 0 fields using the functional syntax: `TD = TypedDict("TD")` and `TD = TypedDict("TD", None)`. Both will be disallowed in Python 3.15. To create a TypedDict class with 0 fields, either use `class TD(TypedDict): pass` or `TD = TypedDict("TD", {})`.
Deprecate creating a typing.NamedTuple class using keyword arguments to denote the fields (`NT = NamedTuple("NT", x=int, y=str)`). This will be disallowed in Python 3.15. Use the class-based syntax or the functional syntax instead.
Two methods of creating `NamedTuple` classes with 0 fields using the functional syntax are also deprecated, and will be disallowed in Python 3.15: `NT = NamedTuple("NT")` and `NT = NamedTuple("NT", None)`. To create a `NamedTuple` class with 0 fields, either use `class NT(NamedTuple): pass` or `NT = NamedTuple("NT", [])`.
