@@ -12,6 +12,15 @@ What's New in Python 2.4 alpha 1? Core and builtins ----------------- +- Removed FutureWarnings related to hex/oct literals and conversions + and left shifts. (Thanks to Kalle Svensson for SF patch 849227.) + This addresses most of the remaining semantic changes promised by + PEP 237, except for repr() of a long, which still shows the trailing + 'L'. The PEP appears to promise warnings for operations that + changed semantics compared to Python 2.3, but this is not + implemented; we've suffered through enough warnings related to + hex/oct literals and I think it's best to be silent now. + - For str and unicode objects, the ljust(), center(), and rjust() methods now accept an optional argument specifying a fill character other than a space. |
