This class was deprecated in
27cd6c4880 (Dec 2, 2012), which was first
included in release 2.5. Enough time has passed for library uses to find
an alternative solution.
This class was untested.
Make all library code compatible with both Python 2 and Python 3. Helps
move to modern Python idioms. Can now write for Python 3 (with
workarounds for Python 2) instead of the other way around.
In the future, when it is eventually time to drop Python 2, the library
will be in a better position to remove workarounds
Added a very small comparability module compat.py where required. It
includes definitions for:
- text_type -- A type. str on Python 3. unicode on Python 2.
- string_types -- A tuple. Contains only str on Python 3. Contains str &
unicode on Python 2.
The implementation is based on psycopg 2.4, which should be less broken
(zope-wise) of the current one.
Instantiating psycopg2.pool.PersistentConnectionPool now raises a warning.
This should fix ticket #123, #125. The issue of the reset on
set_client_encoding() is still present but that's always been there and I'm no
good at fixing it.
