New submission from anatoly techtonik <techtonik@gmail.com>: I've just noticed that my application is incompatible with Python 2.5, because ctypes.wintypes is missing SHORT constants. However, I can't find the information when these symbols were introduced first. To prevent such confusion in future it would be nice to extract symbol information for each Python release and automatically include the version of the first appearance in documentation. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 128893 nosy: docs@python, techtonik priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: autodocument first appearance of ctypes.wintypes constants versions: Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11253> _______________________________________
