|
3 | 3 | ===================== |
|
4 | 4 | |
|
5 | 5 | This document describes in-flight development work. |
|
6 | 6 | |
|
7 | 7 | The CodeMirror js library has been updated fron 2.23 to 2.32 |
|
8 | 8 | this might induce a few changes in behavior of keymaps in the notebook, |
|
9 | 9 | especially intenting/deindenting blocks that is now bound to Ctrl+] and ctr+[ |
|
10 | 10 | |
|
11 | 11 | * Exception types can now be displayed with a custom traceback, by defining a |
|
12 | 12 | ``_render_traceback_()`` method which returns a list of strings, each |
|
13 | 13 | containing one line of the traceback. |
|
14 | 14 | * A new command, ``ipython history trim`` can be used to delete everything but |
|
15 | 15 | the last 1000 entries in the history database. |
|

17 | 17 | In-process kernels |
|
18 | 18 | ------------------ |
|
19 | 19 | |
|
20 | 20 | The Python-language frontends, particularly the Qt console, may now communicate |
|
21 | 21 | with in-process kernels, in addition to the traditional out-of-process |
|
22 | 22 | kernels. An in-process kernel permits direct access to the kernel namespace, |
|
23 | 23 | which is necessary in some applications. It should be understood, however, that |
|
24 | 24 | the in-process kernel is not robust to bad user input and will block the main |
|
25 | 25 | (GUI) thread while executing. Developers must decide on a case-by-case basis |
|
26 | 26 | whether this tradeoff is appropriate for their application. |
|
27 | 27 | |
|
28 | 28 | Backwards incompatible changes |
|
29 | 29 | ------------------------------ |
|
30 | 30 | |
|
31 | 31 | * Calling :meth:`InteractiveShell.prefilter` will no longer perform static |
|
32 | 32 | transformations - the processing of escaped commands such as ``%magic`` and |
|
33 | 33 | ``!system``, and stripping input prompts from code blocks. This functionality |
|
34 | 34 | was duplicated in :mod:`IPython.core.inputsplitter`, and the latter version |
|
35 | 35 | was already what IPython relied on. A new API to transform input will be ready |
|
36 | 36 | before release. |
|
37 | 37 | * Functions from :mod:`IPython.lib.inputhook` to control integration with GUI |
|
38 | 38 | event loops are no longer exposed in the top level of :mod:`IPython.lib`. |
|
39 | 39 | Code calling these should make sure to import them from |
|
40 | 40 | :mod:`IPython.lib.inputhook`. |
|
41 | * For all kernel managers, the ``sub_channel`` attribute has been renamed to | |
|
42 | ``iopub_channel``. |
