This document details the modifications to PyTables since version 1.2. Its
main purpose is help you ensure that your programs will be runnable when you
switch from PyTables 1.2 to PyTables 1.3.
API additions
=============
- The Table.Cols accessor has received a new __setitem__() method that
allows doing things like:
table.cols[4] = record
table.cols.x[4:1000:2] = array # homogeneous column
table.cols.Info[4:1000:2] = recarray # nested column
Backward-incompatible changes
=============================
- None
Deprecated features
===================
- None
API refinements
===============
- Table.itersequence has changed the default value for 'sort' parameter. It is
now False by default, as it is not clear if this actually accelerates the
iterator, so it is better to let to the user doing the proper checks (if he
is interested at all).
Bug fixes (affecting API)
=========================
- None
