Fixes #16.
Instead of bumping up the Python version requirement for Typecatcher to work I made a shim which calls the good old
ElementTree.getiterator(tag)
for Python 3.1 and below, and instead use the newElementTree.iter(tag)
for newer versions of Python (introduced since 3.2). The former method has been removed starting from Python 3.9.I can't build through
setup.py
due to issues with my build environment (unable to importDistUtilsExtra.auto
despite havingpython3-apt
installed on Ubuntu 21.04). However, I've tested it with bothtests/test_pyflake.py
andtests/unit_tests.py
and finally run the program throughpython3 bin/typecatcher
.
