.. Rules for maintenance:
|
|
|
|
* Anyone can add text to this document. Do not spend very much time
|
|
on the wording of your changes, because your text will probably
|
|
get rewritten to some degree.
|
|
|
|
* The maintainer will go through Misc/NEWS periodically and add
|
|
changes; it's therefore more important to add your changes to
|
|
Misc/NEWS than to this file.
|
|
|
|
* This is not a complete list of every single change; completeness
|
|
is the purpose of Misc/NEWS. Some changes I consider too small
|
|
or esoteric to include. If such a change is added to the text,
|
|
I'll just remove it. (This is another reason you shouldn't spend
|
|
too much time on writing your addition.)
|
|
|
|
* If you want to draw your new text to the attention of the
|
|
maintainer, add 'XXX' to the beginning of the paragraph or
|
|
section.
|
|
|
|
* It's OK to just add a fragmentary note about a change. For
|
|
example: "XXX Describe the transmogrify() function added to the
|
|
socket module." The maintainer will research the change and
|
|
write the necessary text.
|
|
|
|
* You can comment out your additions if you like, but it's not
|
|
necessary (especially when a final release is some months away).
|
|
|
|
* Credit the author of a patch or bugfix. Just the name is
|
|
sufficient; the e-mail address isn't necessary.
|
|
|
|
* It's helpful to add the bug/patch number as a comment:
|
|
|
|
XXX Describe the transmogrify() function added to the socket
|
|
module.
|
|
(Contributed by P.Y. Developer in :issue:`12345`.)
|
|
|
|
This saves the maintainer the effort of going through the Mercurial log
|
|
when researching a change.
|
|
|
|
This article explains the new features in Python 3.10, compared to 3.9.
|
|
|
|
For full details, see the :ref:`changelog <changelog>`.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Prerelease users should be aware that this document is currently in draft
|
|
form. It will be updated substantially as Python 3.10 moves towards release,
|
|
so it's worth checking back even after reading earlier versions.

|
|
|
|
PEP 563: Postponed Evaluation of Annotations Becomes Default
|
|
------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In Python 3.7, postponed evaluation of annotations was added,
|
|
to be enabled with a ``from __future__ import annotations``
|
|
directive. In 3.10 this became the default behavior, even
|
|
without that future directive. With this being default, all
|
|
annotations stored in :attr:`__annotations__` will be strings.
|
|
If needed, annotations can be resolved at runtime using
|
|
:func:`typing.get_type_hints`. See :pep:`563` for a full
|
|
description. Also, the :func:`inspect.signature` will try to
|
|
resolve types from now on, and when it fails it will fall back to
|
|
showing the string annotations. (Contributed by Batuhan Taskaya
|
|
in :issue:`38605`.)
|
|
|
|
* The :class:`int` type has a new method :meth:`int.bit_count`, returning the
|
|
number of ones in the binary expansion of a given integer, also known
|
|
as the population count. (Contributed by Niklas Fiekas in :issue:`29882`.)
|
|
|
|
* The views returned by :meth:`dict.keys`, :meth:`dict.values` and
|
|
:meth:`dict.items` now all have a ``mapping`` attribute that gives a
|
|
:class:`types.MappingProxyType` object wrapping the original
|
|
dictionary. (Contributed by Dennis Sweeney in :issue:`40890`.)
|
|
|
|
* :pep:`618`: The :func:`zip` function now has an optional ``strict`` flag, used
|
|
to require that all the iterables have an equal length.
|
|
|
|
PEP 613: TypeAlias Annotation
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
:pep:`484` introduced the concept of type aliases, only requiring them to be
|
|
top-level unannotated assignments. This simplicity sometimes made it difficult
|
|
for type checkers to distinguish between type aliases and ordinary assignments,
|
|
especially when forward references or invalid types were involved. Compare::
|
|
|
|
StrCache = 'Cache[str]' # a type alias
|
|
LOG_PREFIX = 'LOG[DEBUG]' # a module constant
|
|
|
|
Now the :mod:`typing` module has a special annotation :data:`TypeAlias` to
|
|
declare type aliases more explicitly::
|
|
|
|
StrCache: TypeAlias = 'Cache[str]' # a type alias
|
|
LOG_PREFIX = 'LOG[DEBUG]' # a module constant
|
|
|
|
See :pep:`613` for more details.

|
|
|
PEP604: New Type Union Operator
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A new type union operator was introduced which enables the syntax ``X | Y``.
|
|
This provides a cleaner way of expressing 'either type X or type Y' instead of
|
|
using :data:`typing.Union`, especially in type hints (annotations).
|
|
|
|
In previous versions of Python, to apply a type hint for functions accepting
|
|
arguments of multiple types, :data:`typing.Union` was used::
|
|
|
|
def square(number: Union[int, float]) -> Union[int, float]:
|
|
return number ** 2
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type hints can now be written in a more succinct manner::
|
|
|
|
def square(number: int | float) -> int | float:
|
|
return number ** 2
|
|
|
|
|
|
See :pep:`604` for more details.

|
|
|
|
Other Language Changes
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
* Builtin and extension functions that take integer arguments no longer accept
|
|
:class:`~decimal.Decimal`\ s, :class:`~fractions.Fraction`\ s and other
|
|
objects that can be converted to integers only with a loss (e.g. that have
|
|
the :meth:`~object.__int__` method but do not have the
|
|
:meth:`~object.__index__` method).

Optimizations
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
* Constructors :func:`str`, :func:`bytes` and :func:`bytearray` are now faster
|
|
(around 30--40% for small objects).
|
|
(Contributed by Serhiy Storchaka in :issue:`41334`.)
|
|
|
|
* The :mod:`runpy` module now imports fewer modules.
|
|
The ``python3 -m module-name`` command startup time is 1.3x faster in
|
|
average.
|
|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`41006`.)
|
|
|
|
* The ``LOAD_ATTR`` instruction now uses new "per opcode cache" mechanism.
|
|
It is about 36% faster now. (Contributed by Pablo Galindo and Yury Selivanov
|
|
in :issue:`42093`, based on ideas implemented originally in PyPy and MicroPython.)
|
|
|
|
* When building Python with ``--enable-optimizations`` now
|
|
``-fno-semantic-interposition`` is added to both the compile and link line.
|
|
This speeds builds of the Python interpreter created with ``--enable-shared``
|
|
with ``gcc`` by up to 30%. See `this article
|
|
<https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2020/06/25/red-hat-enterprise-linux-8-2-brings-faster-python-3-8-run-speeds/>`_
|
|
for more details. (Contributed by Victor Stinner and Pablo Galindo in
|
|
:issue:`38980`)
|
|
|
|
Deprecated
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
* Starting in this release, there will be a concerted effort to begin
|
|
cleaning up old import semantics that were kept for Python 2.7
|
|
compatibility. Specifically,
|
|
:meth:`~importlib.abc.PathEntryFinder.find_loader`/:meth:`~importlib.abc.Finder.find_module`
|
|
(superseded by :meth:`~importlib.abc.Finder.find_spec`),
|
|
:meth:`~importlib.abc.Loader.load_module`
|
|
(superseded by :meth:`~importlib.abc.Loader.exec_module`),
|
|
:meth:`~importlib.abc.Loader.module_repr` (which the import system
|
|
takes care of for you), the ``__package__`` attribute
|
|
(superseded by ``__spec__.parent``), the ``__loader__`` attribute
|
|
(superseded by ``__spec__.loader``), and the ``__cached__`` attribute
|
|
(superseded by ``__spec__.cached``) will slowly be removed (as well
|
|
as other classes and methods in :mod:`importlib`).
|
|
:exc:`ImportWarning` and/or :exc:`DeprecationWarning` will be raised
|
|
as appropriate to help identify code which needs updating during
|
|
this transition.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Removed
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
* Removed special methods ``__int__``, ``__float__``, ``__floordiv__``,
|
|
``__mod__``, ``__divmod__``, ``__rfloordiv__``, ``__rmod__`` and
|
|
``__rdivmod__`` of the :class:`complex` class. They always raised
|
|
a :exc:`TypeError`.
|
|
(Contributed by Serhiy Storchaka in :issue:`41974`.)
|
|
|
|
* The ``ParserBase.error()`` method from the private and undocumented ``_markupbase``
|
|
module has been removed. :class:`html.parser.HTMLParser` is the only subclass of
|
|
``ParserBase`` and its ``error()`` implementation has already been removed in
|
|
Python 3.5.
|
|
(Contributed by Berker Peksag in :issue:`31844`.)
|
|
|
|
* Removed the ``unicodedata.ucnhash_CAPI`` attribute which was an internal
|
|
PyCapsule object. The related private ``_PyUnicode_Name_CAPI`` structure was
|
|
moved to the internal C API.
|
|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`42157`.)
|
|
|
|
* Removed the ``parser`` module, which was deprecated in 3.9 due to the
|
|
switch to the new PEG parser, as well as all the C source and header files
|
|
that were only being used by the old parser, including ``node.h``, ``parser.h``,
|
|
``graminit.h`` and ``grammar.h``.
|
|
|
|
* Removed the Public C API functions :c:func:`PyParser_SimpleParseStringFlags`,
|
|
:c:func:`PyParser_SimpleParseStringFlagsFilename`,
|
|
:c:func:`PyParser_SimpleParseFileFlags` and :c:func:`PyNode_Compile`
|
|
that were deprecated in 3.9 due to the switch to the new PEG parser.

C API Changes
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
New Features
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
* The result of :c:func:`PyNumber_Index` now always has exact type :class:`int`.
|
|
Previously, the result could have been an instance of a subclass of ``int``.
|
|
(Contributed by Serhiy Storchaka in :issue:`40792`.)
|
|
|
|
* Add a new :c:member:`~PyConfig.orig_argv` member to the :c:type:`PyConfig`
|
|
structure: the list of the original command line arguments passed to the
|
|
Python executable.
|
|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`23427`.)
|
|
|
|
* The :c:func:`PyDateTime_DATE_GET_TZINFO` and
|
|
:c:func:`PyDateTime_TIME_GET_TZINFO` macros have been added for accessing
|
|
the ``tzinfo`` attributes of :class:`datetime.datetime` and
|
|
:class:`datetime.time` objects.
|
|
(Contributed by Zackery Spytz in :issue:`30155`.)
|
|
|
|
* Add a :c:func:`PyCodec_Unregister` function to unregister a codec
|
|
search function.
|
|
(Contributed by Hai Shi in :issue:`41842`.)
|
|
|
|
* The :c:func:`PyIter_Send` function was added to allow
|
|
sending value into iterator without raising ``StopIteration`` exception.
|
|
(Contributed by Vladimir Matveev in :issue:`41756`.)
|
|
|
|
* Added :c:func:`PyUnicode_AsUTF8AndSize` to the limited C API.
|
|
(Contributed by Alex Gaynor in :issue:`41784`.)
|
|
|
|
* Added :c:func:`PyModule_AddObjectRef` function: similar to
|
|
:c:func:`PyModule_AddObject` but don't steal a reference to the value on
|
|
success.
|
|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`1635741`.)
|
|
|
|
* Added :c:func:`Py_NewRef` and :c:func:`Py_XNewRef` functions to increment the
|
|
reference count of an object and return the object.
|
|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`42262`.)
|
|
|
|
* The :c:func:`PyType_FromModuleAndSpec` function now accepts NULL ``tp_doc``
|
|
slot.
|
|
(Contributed by Hai Shi in :issue:`41832`.)
|
|
|
|
* The :c:func:`PyType_GetSlot` function can accept static types.
|
|
(Contributed by Hai Shi and Petr Viktorin in :issue:`41073`.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Porting to Python 3.10
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
* The ``PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN`` macro must now be defined to use
|
|
:c:func:`PyArg_ParseTuple` and :c:func:`Py_BuildValue` formats which use
|
|
``#``: ``es#``, ``et#``, ``s#``, ``u#``, ``y#``, ``z#``, ``U#`` and ``Z#``.
|
|
See :ref:`Parsing arguments and building values
|
|
<arg-parsing>` and the :pep:`353`.
|
|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`40943`.)
|
|
|
|
* Since :c:func:`Py_TYPE()` is changed to the inline static function,
|
|
``Py_TYPE(obj) = new_type`` must be replaced with ``Py_SET_TYPE(obj, new_type)``:
|
|
see :c:func:`Py_SET_TYPE()` (available since Python 3.9). For backward
|
|
compatibility, this macro can be used::
|
|
|
|
#if PY_VERSION_HEX < 0x030900A4
|
|
# define Py_SET_TYPE(obj, type) ((Py_TYPE(obj) = (type)), (void)0)
|
|
#endif
|
|
|
|
(Contributed by Dong-hee Na in :issue:`39573`.)
|
|
|
|
* Since :c:func:`Py_REFCNT()` is changed to the inline static function,
|
|
``Py_REFCNT(obj) = new_refcnt`` must be replaced with ``Py_SET_REFCNT(obj, new_refcnt)``:

``Py_SIZE(obj) = new_size`` must be replaced with ``Py_SET_SIZE(obj, new_size)``:

* The private ``_PyUnicode_Name_CAPI`` structure of the PyCapsule API
|
|
``unicodedata.ucnhash_CAPI`` has been moved to the internal C API.

* :c:func:`Py_GetPath`, :c:func:`Py_GetPrefix`, :c:func:`Py_GetExecPrefix`,
|
|
:c:func:`Py_GetProgramFullPath`, :c:func:`Py_GetPythonHome` and
|
|
:c:func:`Py_GetProgramName` functions now return ``NULL`` if called before
|

Deprecated
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
* The ``PyUnicode_InternImmortal()`` function is now deprecated
|
|
and will be removed in Python 3.12: use :c:func:`PyUnicode_InternInPlace`
|
|
instead.

|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`41692`.)
|
|
|
|
Removed
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
* ``PyObject_AsCharBuffer()``, ``PyObject_AsReadBuffer()``, ``PyObject_CheckReadBuffer()``,
|
|
and ``PyObject_AsWriteBuffer()`` are removed. Please migrate to new buffer protocol;
|
|
:c:func:`PyObject_GetBuffer` and :c:func:`PyBuffer_Release`.
|
|
(Contributed by Inada Naoki in :issue:`41103`.)
|
|
|

* Removed ``Py_UNICODE_str*`` functions manipulating ``Py_UNICODE*`` strings.
|
|
(Contributed by Inada Naoki in :issue:`41123`.)

|
* ``Py_UNICODE_strlen``: use :c:func:`PyUnicode_GetLength` or
|
|
:c:macro:`PyUnicode_GET_LENGTH`

|
|
:c:func:`PyUnicode_CopyCharacters` or :c:func:`PyUnicode_Substring`
|
|

* ``Py_UNICODE_strchr``, ``Py_UNICODE_strrchr``: use
|
|
:c:func:`PyUnicode_FindChar`
|
|
|
|
* Removed ``PyUnicode_GetMax()``. Please migrate to new (:pep:`393`) APIs.
|
|
(Contributed by Inada Naoki in :issue:`41103`.)

|
|
``ceval.recursion_limit`` of the :c:type:`PyInterpreterState` structure.
|
|
(Contributed by Victor Stinner in :issue:`41834`.)
|
|
|
|
* Removed undocumented macros ``Py_ALLOW_RECURSION`` and
