pyparsing v2.4.1.1 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-07-24 // almost 5 years ago

  • 🚀 This is a re-release of version 2.4.1 to restore the release history 🚀 in PyPI, since the 2.4.1 release was deleted.

    🚀 There are 3 known issues in this release, which are fixed in the upcoming 2.4.2:

    • 👍 API change adding support for expr[...] - the original code in 2.4.1 incorrectly implemented this as OneOrMore. Code using this feature under this relase should explicitly use expr[0, ...] for ZeroOrMore and expr[1, ...] for OneOrMore. In 2.4.2 you will be able to write expr[...] equivalent to ZeroOrMore(expr).

    • 🐛 Bug if composing And, Or, MatchFirst, or Each expressions using an expression. This only affects code which uses explicit expression construction using the And, Or, etc. classes instead of using overloaded operators '+', '', and so on. If constructing an And using a single expression, you may get an error that "cannot multiply ParserElement by 0 or (0, 0)" or a Python IndexError. Change code like

      cmd = Or(Word(alphas))

    to

    cmd = Or([Word(alphas)])

    (Note that this is not the recommended style for constructing Or expressions.)

    • Some newly-added __diag__ switches are enabled by default, which may give rise to noisy user warnings for existing parsers. You can disable them using:

      import pyparsing as pp pp.diag.warn_multiple_tokens_in_named_alternation = False pp.diag.warn_ungrouped_named_tokens_in_collection = False pp.diag.warn_name_set_on_empty_Forward = False pp.diag.warn_on_multiple_string_args_to_oneof = False pp.diag.enable_debug_on_named_expressions = False

    In 2.4.2 these will all be set to False by default.
