Previous one didn't refresh by last use. Use the stdlib version for py3
and one of our own for py2.
Max size set to 512, which should be fine for everyone (tweaking is
still possible by monkeypatching, as the tests do, but I don't want to
make an interface of it).
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.
I'm still fought whether docs should be in the C module or in the .rst.
I'd prefer the first because DRY, but writing multiline strings in C
really sucks.
They can be valid chars in Python 3. Or maybe not? In which case Python
will throw an exception, but that's fine.
Fix regression introduced fixing #211
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.
Deprecated in commit b263fbf274 on
2010-01-13. The deprecation warning was first released in version 2.2.2.
The function used to register an alternate type caster for TIMESTAMP
WITH TIME ZONE to deal with historical time zones with seconds in the
UTC offset. These are now correctly handled by the default type caster,
so currently the function doesn't do anything.
The docs don't need to describe what will happen on Python versions
before 2.6 as they are unsupported by psycopg2.
Should have been included in commit
d58844e548, but was missed.
The decimal module is available on all Python versions supported by
psycopg2. It has been available since Python 2.4. No need to catch an
ImportError.
