Enabling the Python Development Mode shows this warning.\n\nThe deprecation policy is described in 387.\n\nBase class for warnings about features which are obsolete and expected to be deprecated in the future, but are not deprecated at the moment.\n\nThis class is rarely used as emitting a warning about a possible upcoming deprecation is unusual, and DeprecationWarning is preferred for already active deprecations.\n\nIgnored by the default warning filters. Enabling the Python Development Mode shows this warning.\n\nThe deprecation policy is described in 387.\n\nBase class for warnings about dubious syntax.\n\nThis warning is typically emitted when compiling Python source code, and usually won't be reported when running already compiled code.\n\nBase class for warnings about dubious runtime behavior.\n\nBase class for warnings about deprecated features when those warnings are intended for end users of applications that are written in Python.\n\nBase class for warnings about probable mistakes in module imports.\n\nIgnored by the default warning filters. Enabling the Python Development Mode shows this warning.\n\nBase class for warnings related to Unicode.\n\nBase class for warnings related to encodings.\n\nSee io-encoding-warning for details.\n\nBase class for warnings related to bytes and bytearray.\n\nBase class for warnings related to resource usage.\n\nIgnored by the default warning filters. Enabling the Python Development Mode shows this warning.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Python Documentation under PSF-2.0.
