Hello list, just tried the new 3.1a1 release and its 2to3 script on a simple program of mine. The program uses a type check recipe from activestate. The recipe uses 'types.FileType' which is no longer present in 'types' in 3.1a1. 2to3 does not fix and gives no warning.
I found these comments in Misc/HISTORY 3.0a2: - Removed all types from the 'types' module that are easily accessable through builtins. 3.0a1: - Removed these Python builtins: apply(), callable(), coerce(), execfile(), file(), reduce(), reload(). and I could not find a replacement for 'FileType'. Has this been overlooked? Found this thread which does not mention FileType: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/stdlib-sig/2008-April/thread.html#172 I guess I just did not see something simple. Anyone with a hint? Regards, Matthias Kievernagel -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
