- update to 18.1.10:
  * Since MS Windows is unsupported without community help, I
    deleted some legacy code. It could be restored if there is
    demand and some help to improve MS Windows support.
  * New URL for :Oracle:`Oracle documentation <index.html>`.
  * Now we also use Python Stable ABI under Python 3.8 and 3.9.
    Under Python 3.10 and up we can define types that users can
    not instantiate as Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION, but
    that flag is not available under previous Python versions. In
    Python 3.8 and 3.9 we used to do type->tp_new = NULL; for
    that, but this approach is not available under Python Stable
    ABI. That is the reason this module could use Python Stable
    ABI only when compiled under Python 3.10 and superior. In
    this release we define the slot Py_tp_new as NULL in Python
    3.8 and 3.9 to achieve the same effect, and that is available
    under Python Stable ABI.
  * Since this module can now use Python Stable ABI under all
    supported Python releases, that is exactly what we do. From
    now on this module always uses Python Stable ABI.
  * WARNING - BREAKING CHANGE: Change return value of
    berkeleydb.py_limited_api(). This function was introduced in
    18.1.9 and it is used to indicate if the module was using the
    Python Stable ABI or not, and the version Python Stable ABI
    used. Now that the module has been improved to use Python
    Stable ABI always, the function returns a tuple of integers.
    First tuple element tells us what Python Stable ABI version
    are we supporting. Second element tells us what Python
    release was this module compiled under, although it should
    work in any more recent Python release. Since this function
    was introduced in release 18.1.9, we consider this breaking

- update to 18.1.10:
* Since MS Windows is unsupported without community help, I
deleted some legacy code. It could be restored if there is
demand and some help to improve MS Windows support.
* New URL for :Oracle:`Oracle documentation <index.html>`.
* Now we also use Python Stable ABI under Python 3.8 and 3.9.
Under Python 3.10 and up we can define types that users can
not instantiate as Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION, but
that flag is not available under previous Python versions. In
Python 3.8 and 3.9 we used to do type->tp_new = NULL; for
that, but this approach is not available under Python Stable
ABI. That is the reason this module could use Python Stable
ABI only when compiled under Python 3.10 and superior. In
this release we define the slot Py_tp_new as NULL in Python
3.8 and 3.9 to achieve the same effect, and that is available
under Python Stable ABI.
* Since this module can now use Python Stable ABI under all
supported Python releases, that is exactly what we do. From
now on this module always uses Python Stable ABI.
* WARNING - BREAKING CHANGE: Change return value of
berkeleydb.py_limited_api(). This function was introduced in
18.1.9 and it is used to indicate if the module was using the
Python Stable ABI or not, and the version Python Stable ABI
used. Now that the module has been improved to use Python
Stable ABI always, the function returns a tuple of integers.
First tuple element tells us what Python Stable ABI version
are we supporting. Second element tells us what Python
release was this module compiled under, although it should
work in any more recent Python release. Since this function
was introduced in release 18.1.9, we consider this breaking
change a minor infraction affecting most probably nobody.
* Delete some unneeded ancient Python 2.x code.
* Delete more unneeded code to check threading support since
Python 3.7 and up always guarantee threads.
* pkg_resources is deprecated, so migrate to packaging. This is
already provided by modern setuptools. This change only
affects you if you run the test suite.
* If compiled under Python 3.10 or higher, we use the Python
Stable ABI, as defined in PEP 384 and related PEPs. That is,
you can use the same compiled module with any Python release
if Python version >= 3.10. In order to achieve this, we have
made these changes: Some fast Python API (not error
checking) have been replaced by somewhat slower functions
(functions that do error checking), because the former are
not available in the Stable ABI: PyBytes_GET_SIZE(),
PyBytes_AS_STRING(), PyTuple_SET_ITEM(). We replaced
PyErr_Warn() by PyErr_WarnEx() because it is not available in
the Stable ABI. When an exception is raised because an
incompatible type, we need to write complicated code because
Py_TYPE(keyobj)->tp_name is not available in the Stable ABI.
Code generated for Python < 3.11 is "ugly", we will clean it
up when the minimum supported Python version is 3.11.
TYPE->tp_alloc is not available under the Stable ABI. We
replace it with PyType_GenericNew(). Internal types that
should NOT be instanciated by the user has type->tp_new =
NULL. This can not be done under the Stable ABI, so we use
Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION flag. This is the reason we
only create Stable ABI modules under Python >= 3.10, because
that flag is defined in that Python release. The new function
berkeleydb.py_limited_api() returns an integer describing the
minimum supported Stable ABI or None. If None, the module is
not compiled with Stable ABI and can not be used with a
different Python version. When not None, the value of
berkeleydb.py_limited_api() can be easily interpreted using
something like hex(berkeleydb.py_limited_api()).

the value of berkeleydb.py_limited_api() can be easily
interpreted using something like
hex(berkeleydb.py_limited_api()).
* Python 3.13 added to the full test matrix.
* Experimental Python 3.13 support. Tested under 3.13.0b2.
* This code can be compiled under MS Windows, but I am unable
to provide support for it and it is far from trivial. Because
of this and some complains about it, I change the
"Classifiers" for this project from 'Operating System :: OS
Independent' to 'Operating System :: Unix' I would restore
MS Windows support if there is some kind of community support
for it. I can not do it by myself alone. Sorry about that.
