- Pre-built packages are now available for Python 3.10.
- Using
.Dataset.astype
as a context manager (with dset.astype(t):
) is deprecated. Slice the object returned by astype instead (data = dset.astype(t)[:10]
). This works from h5py 3.0 onwards. - Getting the value of
h5py.get_config().default_file_mode
now issues a deprecation warning. This has been'r'
by default from h5py 3.0, and cannot be changed since 3.3.
- h5py now requires the
oldest-supported-numpy
package at build time, instead of maintaining its own list of the oldest supported NumPy versions. The effect should be similar, but hopefully more reliable.
- The custom
setup.py test
has been removed. tox should be used instead during development (seecontrib-run-tests
), andpytest --pyargs h5py
can be used to test h5py after installation.
