We ran into this only once when Python 2.0 began to disallow multiple arguments to the sequence append method. This problem required changing exactly three easily found calls in our code base of over 77K lines of Python. 2) Different versions of Python can produce incompatible compiled byte code and requires that C/C++ extension modules are compiled against a specific version of Python.

  • Metaclasses in Python 1.5

    ...releases (and still in 1.5), there is something called the ``Don Beaudry hook'', after its inventor and champion. This allows C extensions to provide alternate class behavior, thereby allowing the Python class syntax to be used to define other class-like entities. Don Beaudry has used this in his infamous MESS package; Jim Fulton has used it in his Extension Classes package. (It has also been referred to as the ``Don Beaudry hack,'' but that's a misnomer. There's nothing hackish about...

  • What's new in Python 2.3

    What's new in Python 2.3 What's new in Python 2.3 Here are the (subjective) highlights of what's new in Python 2.3. Faster According to a couple of simple benchmark, Python 2.3 is about 20-30% faster than Python 2.2.3. Some of this speed-up was obtained by removing the SET_LINENO opcodes, which means that the difference is less impressive when comparing "python -O"; the rest was various careful tune-ups. New Tools A brand new version of IDLE (from the IDLEfork project at S...

"Package import" is a method to structure Python's module namespace by using "dotted module names". For example, the module name A.B designates a submodule named B in a package named A. Just like...
