At this point it only runs on the 'default' version - whatever /usr/bin/python resolves to. I like the idea of having it run on all installed python versions, but I haven't explored how to do that yet. I've been using virtualenv [1] to switch between the two versions of python I have installed on my development station. Tox [2] is probably the best approach to enable testing against multiple python environments. I'll look into tox a bit and see what I can come up with. -K [1] http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/ [2] https://tox.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ > > --Rafael > > On Wed, Apr 29, 2015 at 4:05 PM, Ken Giusti <kgiu...@redhat.com> wrote: > > > > > Well, done enough to consider merging to master. > > > > While the patch is quite large, most of the changes are simple syntax > > changes to avoid non-python3 compliant syntax. > > > > The code is available on the kgiusti-python3 branch at the Apache repo. > > > > > > https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=qpid-proton.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/kgiusti-python3 > > > > I've also made a patch that can be viewed up on reviewboard: > > > > https://reviews.apache.org/r/33691/ > > > > I've verified that the unit tests and python examples run under python2.6, > > 2.7, and python3.3.
