New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@redhat.com>:
platform.popen() is deprecated since Python 3.3: bpo-11377. Calling the function emits a DeprecationWarning and the function is documented as being deprecated. The function is documented in the "Win95/98 specific": https://docs.python.org/dev/library/platform.html#win95-98-specific Python 3.5 dropped Windows XP support. I don't think that Python 2.7 still support Windows 98. So it's time to remove support for this old OS. Python 3 now has a os.popen() function: https://docs.python.org/dev/library/os.html#os.popen ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 330639 nosy: vstinner priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Remove platform.popen(), deprecated since Python 3.3 versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35345> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
