| Other Changes |
| ============= |
| |
| * pyreverse now permit to produce colored generated diagram by using the ``colorized`` option. |
| |
| * Pyreverse - add output in PlantUML format |
| |
| * ``consider-using-with`` is no longer triggered if a context manager is returned from a function. |
| |
| * pylint does not crash with a traceback anymore when a file is problematic. It |
| creates a template text file for opening an issue on the bug tracker instead. |
| The linting can go on for other non problematic files instead of being impossible. |
| |
| * Pyreverse - Show class has-a relationships inferred from type-hints |
| |
| * Performance of the Similarity checker has been improved. |
| |
| * Added ``time.clock`` to deprecated functions/methods for python 3.3 |
| |
| * Added ``ignored-parents`` option to the design checker to ignore specific |
| classes from the ``too-many-ancestors`` check (R0901). |
| |
| * Don't emit ``no-member`` error if guarded behind if statement. |
