I've uploaded PyObjC 6.0 to PyPI. This is a major feature release, the =
two most important changes are the addition of support for frameworks =
and APIs introduced in macOS 10.15 (Catalina), and the removal of =
support for Python 2.7.
PyPI has wheels for 64-bit builds of Python 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8. The source =
should still work with 32-bit builds of Python, but those are no longer =
tested.
At the time of writing the source code is still in the branch =
"pyobjc-6-branch".=20
The full list of changes:
* Removed Python 2 support from the C extension in pyobjc-core
* Reformatted code in pyobjc-core:
- Use "black" for Python code
- Use "clang-format" for Objective-C code
As a side-effect of this all usage of "NS_DURING" and =
"PyObjC_DURING"
has been replaced by the expansion of those macros, mostly because
"clang-format" doesn't understand these kinds of blocks.
Replacing PyObjC_DURING by its expansion also reduces the knowledge
needed to understand what's going on w.r.t. the Python GIL.
The macro PyObjC_DURING, and its siblings, have been removed as =
well.
* Updated bindings for macOS 10.15 (Xcode 11.0)
* The userspace driver frameworks introduced in macOS 10.15
(DriverKit and related frameworks) will not be exposed through
PyObjC. Please let me know if you have a good
use case for using these frameworks with Python.
* Add new framework wrappers for all other new frameworks
in macOS 10.15:
- AuthenticationServices
- CoreHaptics
- CoreMotion
- DeviceCheck
- ExecutionPolicy
- FileProvider
- FileProviderUI
- LinkPresentation
- OSLog
- PencilKit
- PushKit
- QuickLookThumbnailing
- Speech
- SoundAnalysis
- SystemExtensions
* Add new framework wrappers for a number of older
frameworks:
- MetalKit (new in macOS 10.11)
* Issue #271: Fix crash when creating NSData objects on macOS 10.15
P.S. This release is later than I'd like for various reasons, but mostly =
because I've spent less time at my computer the last couple of weeks.
