   flufl.enum
   ==========
   
   A Python enumeration package.
   
   The `flufl.enum` library is a Python enumeration package.  Its goal is to
   provide simple, specific, concise semantics in an easy to read and write
   syntax.  `flufl.enum` has just enough of the features needed to make
   enumerations useful, but without a lot of extra baggage to weigh them down.
   This work grew out of the Mailman 3.0 project.
   
   **Note: This package is deprecated!** Python 3.4 added an enum package to its
   `standard library`_ which is also available as a `third party package`_ on
   PyPI for older versions of Python.  If you are using `flufl.enum` you should
   switch to the standard enum package.

   NEWS for flufl.enum
   ===================
   
   4.1.1 (2017-01-24)
   ==================
    * Support Python 3.6.  (Closes #1)
   
   4.1 (2015-10-09)
   ================
    * Fix the regexp that matches identifiers in the functional API.
      (LP: #1167052)
    * Deprecate using getitem syntax for accessing enum values by attribute
      name.  Use ``getattr(Enum, name)`` instead.  (LP: #1167091)
    * Duplicate enum values error now provides information on the attribute names
      that produced the conflict.  Given by Eli Bendersky.
    * The documentation now makes it clear that iteration sort order is not
      guaranteed for ``Enum`` but *is* guaranteed for ``IntEnum``.
    * Comparison operators now return ``NotImplemented`` which cause their use to
      raise ``TypeError`` instead of ``NotImplementedError``.  This is for
      consistency with Python 3.  In Python 2, we raise the ``TypeError``
      explicitly.
    * ``repr(Enum)`` now sorts in attribute name order, as does iteration over
      ``Enum``.  Iteration over ``IntEnum`` is sorted by the enumeration item
      values (which must be integers).
    * ``Enum.__getattr__()`` and special treatment for ``__members__`` is
      removed.  A ``__dir__()`` is provided to limit ``dir(Enum)`` to just the
      enumeration item names.
    * As per BDFL request, document the ``__value_factory__`` API.
    * Add support for Python 3.5 and drop support for Python 2.6.
   
   
   4.0.1 (2014-06-11)
   ==================
    * Include MANIFEST.in and tox.ini in the sdist tarball, otherwise the Debian
      package won't built correctly.
    * Drop use of distribute.
    * Narrow tox supported environments.
    * Bump copyright years.
   
   
   4.0 (2013-04-05)
   ================
    * Fix documentation bugs.  (LP: #1026403, LP: #1132830)
    * Deprecate ``EnumValue.__int__()``; use ``IntEnumValue`` (via ``IntEnum``)
      instead.
    * Add ``IntEnum`` class which returns int-subclass enum values. (LP: #1132976)
      - Add ``__index__()`` method to support slicing.  (LP: #1132972)
      - Add non-deprecated ``__int__()`` method.
    * Deprecate ``make()``; use ``Enum()`` instead.
      - Call ``IntEnum()`` to create integer valued enums.  (LP: #1162375)
      - Accept a space-separate string of enum values which are auto-split.
      - Accept a dictionary of enumeration name/value pairs.
    * Add ``.value`` attribute to enum values.  (LP: #1132859)
    * For ``__getitem__()`` and ``__call__()``, fall back to using the ``.value``
      attribute if the argument has one. (LP: #1124596)
    * Previously deprecated APIs ``EnumValue.enumclass``, ``EnumValue.enumname``,
      and ``enum.make_enum()`` are removed.  (LP: #1132951)
    * Small change to the ``repr`` of enum values; they now say "value=" instead
      of "int=".
    * Multiple enum values now raise a `ValueError` instead of a `TypeError`.
   
   
   3.3.2 (2012-04-19)
   ==================
    * Add classifiers to setup.py and make the long description more compatible
      with the Cheeseshop.
    * Other changes to make the Cheeseshop page look nicer.  (LP: #680136)
    * setup_helper.py version 2.1.
   
   
   3.3.1 (2012-01-19)
   ==================
    * Fix Python 3 compatibility with Sphinx's conf.py ($python setup.py install).
   
   
   3.3 (2012-01-19)
   ================
    * Remove the dependency on 2to3 for Python 3 support; support Python 3
      directly with a single code base.
    * flufl.enum.make_enum() is deprecated in favor of flufl.enum.make() which
      provides a better API.  (LP: #839529)
    * Updated to distribute 0.6.19.
    * Moved all documentation to .rst suffix.
    * Make test_deprecations() compatible with Python 3 and Python 2.
    * Removed markup for pylint.
    * Improve documentation to illustrate that enum values with similar names and
      integer representations still do not hash equally.  (Found by Jeroen
      Vermeulen).
   
   
   3.2 (2011-08-19)
   ================
    * make_enum() accepts an optional `iterable` argument to provide the values
      for the enums.
    * The .enumclass and .enumname attributes are deprecated.  Use .enum and
      .name instead, respectively.
    * Improve the documentation regarding ordered comparisons and equality
      tests.  (LP: #794853)
    * make_enum() now enforces the use of valid Python identifiers. (LP: #803570)
   
   
   3.1 (2011-03-01)
   ================
    * New convenience function `make_enum()`. (Contributed by Michael Foord)
    * Fix `from flufl.enum import *`.
    * Enums created with the class syntax can be pickled and unpickled.
      (Suggestion and basic implementation idea by Phillip Eby).
   
   
   3.0.1 (2010-06-07)
   ==================
    * Fixed typo which caused the package to break.
   
   
   3.0 (2010-04-24)
   ================
    * Package renamed to flufl.enum.
   
   
   2.0.2 (2010-01-29)
   ==================
    * Fixed some test failures when running under 2to3.
   
   
   2.0.1 (2010-01-08)
   ==================
    * Fix the manifest and clarify license.
   
   
   2.0 (2010-01-07)
   ================
    * Use Sphinx to build the documentation.
    * Updates to better package Debian/Ubuntu.
    * Use distribute_setup instead of ez_setup.
    * Rename pep-xxxx.txt; this won't be submitted as a PEP.
    * Remove dependencies on nose and setuptools_bzr
    * Support Python 3 via 2to3.
