Update the procedure for a module's removal to cover the 'deprecated' directive
in the module's docs. Also state that removing the module in 3.0 first is the best option to know where the module itself is used.

For modules to be removed
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Use of modules which will not be deleted in the Python 2.x series
|
||||
will generate a ``DeprecationWarning`` using the
|
||||
``warnings.warn3k()`` function.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In Python 2.6
|
||||
/////////////
|
||||
|
||||
#. Add the following code to the deprecated module (adjusting the
|
||||
module name and the ``warnings`` import and needed)::
|
||||
|
||||
from warnings import warnpy3k
|
||||
warnpy3k("the XXX module has been removed in Python 3.0",
|
||||
stacklevel=2)
|
||||
del warnpy3k
|
||||
|
||||
(the Python-Dev TextMate bundle, available from ``Misc/TextMate``,
|
||||
contains a command that will generate all of this for you).
|
||||
|
||||
#. Update the documentation. For modules with their own documentation
|
||||
file, use the ``:deprecated:`` option for the ``module`` directive.
|
||||
For modules simply listed in a file (e.g., ``undoc.rst``), use the
|
||||
``warning`` directive.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Add the module to the module deletion test in ``test_py3kwarn``.
|
||||
|
||||
#. Check in the change w/ appropriate ``Misc/NEWS`` entry (**block**
|
||||
the checkin in ``py3k``!).
|
||||
|
||||
#. Update this PEP noting that the 2.6 step is done.
|
||||
|
||||
For module removals, it is easiest to remove the module first in
|
||||
Python 3.0 to see where dependencies exist. This makes finding
|
||||
code that (possibly) requires the suppression of the
|
||||
DeprecationWarning easier.
