Python 3.3 support #111

Closed virtuald closed 9 years ago

virtuald commented 9 years ago

@PeterJohnson: Should we support this? Or just do 3.4 all the way. If we choose to support 3.4 only, then we should probably state it in the documentation, and perhaps add a check to setup.py to make sure that they're not installing on an old interpreter.

3.3 seems reasonable, however -- but perhaps more work than we should do at this point. I'm of the opinion we should not support 3.2.

Travis-CI build fails 3.3 at https://travis-ci.org/robotpy/robotpy-wpilib/jobs/45656854, it's because we're using weakref.finalize.

I don't want to go away from using weakref.finalize(), but if there's a reasonable way to have a reasonably functional fallback I'd be ok with that.

Whatever we decide, it should probably apply across the entirery of robotpy, not just core-robotpy. What does frcsim-robotpy require?

virtuald commented 9 years ago

Technically, robotpy-frcsim could probably work with python 2.7, as pygazebo doesn't have any special requirements.

Though, it does have a requirement on asyncio, which was first provided in 3.4. However, trollius provides a backport for 2.7 - 3.4.

I'm going to explicitly mark it as being Python 3.4 only.
