New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@gmail.com>: os.stat_float_times() was introduced in Python 2.3 to get file modification times with sub-second resolution. The default remains to get time as seconds (integer). See commit f607bdaa77475ec8c94614414dc2cecf8fd1ca0a.
The function was introduced to get a smooth transition to time as floating point number, to keep the backward compatibility with Python 2.2. In Python 2.5, os.stat() returns time as float by default: commit fe33d0ba87f5468b50f939724b303969711f3be5. Python 2.5 was released 11 years ago. I consider that people had enough time to migrate their code to float time :-) I modified os.stat_float_times() to emit a DeprecationWarning in Python 3.1: commit 034d0aa2171688c40cee1a723ddcdb85bbce31e8 (bpo-14711). ---------- messages: 304655 nosy: haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Remove os.stat_float_times() versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31827> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
