Pending Removal in Python 3.15 ------------------------------
* :c:func:`PyImport_ImportModuleNoBlock`: use :c:func:`PyImport_ImportModule`. * :c:func:`PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT`: use :c:func:`PyWeakref_GetRef` instead. * :c:func:`PyWeakref_GetObject`: use :c:func:`PyWeakref_GetRef` instead. * :c:type:`!Py_UNICODE_WIDE` type: use ``wchar_t`` instead. * :c:type:`Py_UNICODE` type: use ``wchar_t`` instead. * Python initialization functions:
* :c:func:`PySys_ResetWarnOptions`: clear :data:`sys.warnoptions` and :data:`!warnings.filters` instead. * :c:func:`Py_GetExecPrefix`: get :data:`sys.exec_prefix` instead. * :c:func:`Py_GetPath`: get :data:`sys.path` instead. * :c:func:`Py_GetPrefix`: get :data:`sys.prefix` instead. * :c:func:`Py_GetProgramFullPath`: get :data:`sys.executable` instead. * :c:func:`Py_GetProgramName`: get :data:`sys.executable` instead. * :c:func:`Py_GetPythonHome`: get :c:member:`PyConfig.home` or :envvar:`PYTHONHOME` environment variable instead.
Pending Removal in Future Versions ----------------------------------
The following APIs were deprecated in earlier Python versions and will be removed, although there is currently no date scheduled for their removal.
* :const:`Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_FINALIZE`: no needed since Python 3.8. * :c:func:`PyErr_Fetch`: use :c:func:`PyErr_GetRaisedException`. * :c:func:`PyErr_NormalizeException`: use :c:func:`PyErr_GetRaisedException`. * :c:func:`PyErr_Restore`: use :c:func:`PyErr_SetRaisedException`. * :c:func:`PyModule_GetFilename`: use :c:func:`PyModule_GetFilenameObject`. * :c:func:`PyOS_AfterFork`: use :c:func:`PyOS_AfterFork_Child()`. * :c:func:`PySlice_GetIndicesEx`. * :c:func:`!PyUnicode_AsDecodedObject`. * :c:func:`!PyUnicode_AsDecodedUnicode`. * :c:func:`!PyUnicode_AsEncodedObject`. * :c:func:`!PyUnicode_AsEncodedUnicode`. * :c:func:`PyUnicode_READY`: not needed since Python 3.12. * :c:func:`!_PyErr_ChainExceptions`. * :c:member:`!PyBytesObject.ob_shash` member: call :c:func:`PyObject_Hash` instead. * :c:member:`!PyDictObject.ma_version_tag` member. * Global configuration variables:
* :c:var:`Py_DebugFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.parser_debug` * :c:var:`Py_VerboseFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.verbose` * :c:var:`Py_QuietFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.quiet` * :c:var:`Py_InteractiveFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.interactive` * :c:var:`Py_InspectFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.inspect` * :c:var:`Py_OptimizeFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.optimization_level` * :c:var:`Py_NoSiteFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.site_import` * :c:var:`Py_BytesWarningFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.bytes_warning` * :c:var:`Py_FrozenFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.pathconfig_warnings` * :c:var:`Py_IgnoreEnvironmentFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.use_environment` * :c:var:`Py_DontWriteBytecodeFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.write_bytecode` * :c:var:`Py_NoUserSiteDirectory`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.user_site_directory` * :c:var:`Py_UnbufferedStdioFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.buffered_stdio` * :c:var:`Py_HashRandomizationFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.use_hash_seed` and :c:member:`PyConfig.hash_seed` * :c:var:`Py_IsolatedFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.isolated` * :c:var:`Py_LegacyWindowsFSEncodingFlag`: use :c:member:`PyPreConfig.legacy_windows_fs_encoding` * :c:var:`Py_LegacyWindowsStdioFlag`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.legacy_windows_stdio` * :c:var:`!Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.filesystem_encoding` * :c:var:`!Py_HasFileSystemDefaultEncoding`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.filesystem_encoding` * :c:var:`!Py_FileSystemDefaultEncodeErrors`: use :c:member:`PyConfig.filesystem_errors` * :c:var:`!Py_UTF8Mode`: use :c:member:`PyPreConfig.utf8_mode` (see :c:func:`Py_PreInitialize`)
The :c:func:`Py_InitializeFromConfig` API should be used with :c:type:`PyConfig` instead.
* TLS API:
* :c:func:`PyThread_create_key`: use :c:func:`PyThread_tss_alloc`. * :c:func:`PyThread_delete_key`: use :c:func:`PyThread_tss_free`. * :c:func:`PyThread_set_key_value`: use :c:func:`PyThread_tss_set`. * :c:func:`PyThread_get_key_value`: use :c:func:`PyThread_tss_get`. * :c:func:`PyThread_delete_key_value`: use :c:func:`PyThread_tss_delete`. * :c:func:`PyThread_ReInitTLS`: no longer needed.
