Release History

0.6.0 (Unreleased)

  • Issue #16: Backport AbstractContextManager from Python 3.6 and nullcontext from Python 3.7 (patch by John Vandenberg)

0.5.5 (2017-04-25)

  • Issue #13: setup.py now falls back to plain distutils if setuptools is not available (patch by Allan Harwood)
  • Updates to the default compatibility testing matrix:
    • Added: PyPy3, CPython 3.6 (maintenance), CPython 3.7 (development)
    • Dropped: CPython 3.3

0.5.4 (2016-07-31)

  • Thanks to the welcome efforts of Jannis Leidel, contextlib2 is now a [Jazzband](https://jazzband.co/) project! This means that I (Nick Coghlan) am no longer a single point of failure for backports of future contextlib updates to earlier Python versions.
  • Issue #7: Backported fix for CPython issue #27122, preventing a potential infinite loop on Python 3.5 when handling RuntimeError (CPython updates by Gregory P. Smith & Serhiy Storchaka)

0.5.3 (2016-05-02)

  • ExitStack now correctly handles context managers implemented as old-style classes in Python 2.x (such as codecs.StreamReader and codecs.StreamWriter)
  • setup.py has been migrated to setuptools and configured to emit a universal wheel file by default

0.5.2 (2016-05-02)

  • development migrated from BitBucket to GitHub
  • redirect_stream, redirect_stdout, redirect_stderr and suppress now explicitly inherit from object, ensuring compatibility with ExitStack when run under Python 2.x (patch contributed by Devin Jeanpierre).
  • MANIFEST.in is now included in the published sdist, ensuring the archive can be precisely recreated even without access to the original source repo (patch contributed by Guy Rozendorn)

0.5.1 (2016-01-13)

  • Python 2.6 compatilibity restored (patch contributed by Armin Ronacher)
  • README converted back to reStructured Text formatting

0.5.0 (2016-01-12)

  • Updated to include all features from the Python 3.4 and 3.5 releases of contextlib (also includes some ExitStack enhancements made following the integration into the standard library for Python 3.3)
  • The legacy ContextStack and ContextDecorator.refresh_cm APIs are no longer documented and emit DeprecationWarning when used
  • Python 2.6, 3.2 and 3.3 have been dropped from compatibility testing
  • tox is now supported for local version compatibility testing (patch by Marc Abramowitz)

0.4.0 (2012-05-05)

  • (BitBucket) Issue #8: Replace ContextStack with ExitStack (old ContextStack API retained for backwards compatibility)
  • Fall back to unittest2 if unittest is missing required functionality

0.3.1 (2012-01-17)

  • (BitBucket) Issue #7: Add MANIFEST.in so PyPI package contains all relevant files (patch contributed by Doug Latornell)

0.3 (2012-01-04)

  • (BitBucket) Issue #5: ContextStack.register no longer pointlessly returns the wrapped function
  • (BitBucket) Issue #2: Add examples and recipes section to docs
  • (BitBucket) Issue #3: ContextStack.register_exit() now accepts objects with __exit__ attributes in addition to accepting exit callbacks directly
  • (BitBucket) Issue #1: Add ContextStack.preserve() to move all registered callbacks to a new ContextStack object
  • Wrapped callbacks now expose __wrapped__ (for direct callbacks) or __self__ (for context manager methods) attributes to aid in introspection
  • Moved version number to a VERSION.txt file (read by both docs and setup.py)
  • Added NEWS.rst (and incorporated into documentation)

0.2 (2011-12-15)

  • Renamed CleanupManager to ContextStack (hopefully before anyone started using the module for anything, since I didn't alias the old name at all)

0.1 (2011-12-13)
