7 Added support for Python 3.x and improved support for Unicode filenames.
15 Starting with this version, pylibacl is licensed under LGPL 2.1,
16 Febryary 1999 or any later versions (see README and COPYING).
21 A few more Linux-specific functions:
23 - add the ACL.equiv_mode() method, which will return the equivalent
24 octal mode if this is a basic ACL and raise an IOError exception
27 - add the acl_extended(...) function, which will check if an fd or path
33 FreeBSD 7.x will have almost all the acl manipulation functions that
34 Linux has, with the exception of __getstate__/__setstate__. As a
35 workaround, use the str() and ACL(text=...) methods to pass around
36 textual representations.
41 At module level there are now a few constants exported for easy-checking
42 at runtime what features have been compiled in:
44 - HAS_ACL_FROM_MODE, denoting whether the ACL constructor supports the
47 - HAS_ACL_CHECK, denoting whether ACL instances support the check()
50 - HAS_ACL_ENTRY, denoting whether ACL manipulation is possible and the
51 Entry and Permset classes are available
53 - HAS_EXTENEDED_CHECK, denoting whether the acl_extended function is
56 - HAS_EQUIV_MODE, denoting whether ACL instances support the
62 Many functions have now unittests, which is a good thing.
71 Under Linux, implement more functions from libacl:
73 - add ACL(mode=...), implementing acl_from_mode
74 - add ACL().to_any_text, implementing acl_to_any_text
75 - add ACL comparison, using acl_cmp
76 - add ACL().check, which is a more descriptive function than validate
