@@ -7,47 +7,5 @@ Trollius :alt: No Maintenance Intended .. warning:: - The Trollius project is deprecated since the release 2.1.! Use asyncio on - Python 3 instead. - -Trollius provides infrastructure for writing single-threaded concurrent -code using coroutines, multiplexing I/O access over sockets and other -resources, running network clients and servers, and other related primitives. -Here is a more detailed list of the package contents: - -* a pluggable event loop with various system-specific implementations; - -* transport and protocol abstractions (similar to those in `Twisted - <http://twistedmatrix.com/>`_); - -* concrete support for TCP, UDP, SSL, subprocess pipes, delayed calls, and - others (some may be system-dependent); - -* a ``Future`` class that mimics the one in the ``concurrent.futures`` module, - but adapted for use with the event loop; - -* coroutines and tasks based on generators (``yield``), to help write - concurrent code in a sequential fashion; - -* cancellation support for ``Future``\s and coroutines; - -* synchronization primitives for use between coroutines in a single thread, - mimicking those in the ``threading`` module; - -* an interface for passing work off to a threadpool, for times when you - absolutely, positively have to use a library that makes blocking I/O calls. - -Trollius is a portage of the `asyncio project -<https://github.com/python/asyncio>`_ (`PEP 3156 -<http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3156/>`_) on Python 2. Trollius works on -Python 2.6-3.5. It has been tested on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD and -OpenIndiana. - -* `Asyncio documentation <http://docs.python.org/dev/library/asyncio.html>`_ -* `Trollius project in the Python Cheeseshop (PyPI) - <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/trollius>`_ -* `Trollius project at Github <https://github.com/vstinner/trollius>`_ - (bug tracker, source code) -* Copyright/license: Open source, Apache 2.0. Enjoy! - -See also the `asyncio project at Github <https://github.com/python/asyncio>`_. + The Trollius project is deprecated and unsupported. It is on PyPI + to support existing dependencies only. |
