DeprecationWarning from rpdb2.py

[pourhouse]

This warning is a little annoying, particularly when I am scanning/testing for the absence of stderr output:

>>> import rpdb2
rpdb2.py:308: DeprecationWarning: the sets module is deprecated
  import sets
rpdb2.py:313: DeprecationWarning: The popen2 module is deprecated.  Use the subprocess module.
  import popen2

Here is a fix. Note - this may be needed only for 2.6, as I do not see the DeprecationWarning for the CPython 2.7 and 3.4 versions I have tried the original on

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback.

This is already implemented in the git version, see : https://github.com/bluebird75/winpdb/blob/master/rpdb2.py#L307

Use this version in preference to the packaged version, you will get a few more bug fixes.

Cheers,

Philippe

Cool, thanks!

I guess I shouldn't rely on the copyright and version info in rpdb2.py :)
