What's New in astroid 2.11.6?
=============================
Release date: 2022-06-13
* The Qt brain now correctly treats calling ``.disconnect()`` (with no
arguments) on a slot as valid.
* The argparse brain no longer incorrectly adds ``"Namespace"`` to the locals
of functions that return an ``argparse.Namespace`` object.
Refs PyCQA/pylint#6895
What's New in astroid 2.11.5?
=============================
Release date: 2022-05-09
* Fix crash while obtaining ``object_type()`` of an ``Unknown`` node.
Refs PyCQA/pylint#6539
* Fix a bug where in attempting to handle the patching of ``distutils`` by ``virtualenv``,
library submodules called ``distutils`` (e.g. ``numpy.distutils``) were included also.
Refs PyCQA/pylint#6497
What's New in astroid 2.11.4?
=============================
Release date: 2022-05-02
* Fix ``col_offset`` attribute for nodes involving ``with`` on ``PyPy``.
* Fixed a crash involving two starred expressions: one inside a comprehension,
both inside a call.
Refs PyCQA/pylint#6372
* Made ``FunctionDef.implicit_parameters`` return 1 for methods by making
``FunctionDef.is_bound`` return ``True``, as it does for class methods.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#6464
* Fixed a crash when ``_filter_stmts`` encounters an ``EmptyNode``.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#6438

Closes #817
What's New in astroid 2.11.0?
=============================
Release date: 2022-03-12
* Add new (optional) ``doc_node`` attribute to ``nodes.Module``, ``nodes.ClassDef``,
and ``nodes.FunctionDef``.
* Accessing the ``doc`` attribute of ``nodes.Module``, ``nodes.ClassDef``, and
``nodes.FunctionDef`` has been deprecated in favour of the ``doc_node`` attribute.
Note: ``doc_node`` is an (optional) ``nodes.Const`` whereas ``doc`` was an (optional) ``str``.
* Passing the ``doc`` argument to the ``__init__`` of ``nodes.Module``, ``nodes.ClassDef``,
and ``nodes.FunctionDef`` has been deprecated in favour of the ``postinit`` ``doc_node`` attribute.
Note: ``doc_node`` is an (optional) ``nodes.Const`` whereas ``doc`` was an (optional) ``str``.
* Replace custom ``cachedproperty`` with ``functools.cached_property`` and deprecate it
for Python 3.8+.
Closes #1410
* Set ``end_lineno`` and ``end_col_offset`` attributes to ``None`` for all nodes
with PyPy 3.8. PyPy 3.8 assigns these attributes inconsistently which could lead
to unexpected errors. Overwriting them with ``None`` will cause a fallback
to the already supported way of PyPy 3.7.
* Add missing ``shape`` parameter to numpy ``zeros_like``, ``ones_like``,
and ``full_like`` methods.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#5871
* Only pin ``wrapt`` on the major version.
What's New in astroid 2.10.0?
=============================
Release date: 2022-02-27
* Fixed inference of ``self`` in binary operations in which ``self``
is part of a list or tuple.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#4826
* Fixed builtin inference on `property` calls not calling the `postinit` of the new node, which
resulted in instance arguments missing on these nodes.
* Fixed a crash on ``Super.getattr`` when the attribute was previously uninferable due to a cache
limit size. This limit can be hit when the inheritance pattern of a class (and therefore of the
``__init__`` attribute) is very large.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#5679
* Inlcude names of keyword-only arguments in ``astroid.scoped_nodes.Lambda.argnames``.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#5771
* Fixed a crash inferring on a ``NewType`` named with an f-string.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#5770
* Add support for [attrs v21.3.0](https://github.com/python-attrs/attrs/releases/tag/21.3.0) which
added a new `attrs` module alongside the existing `attr`.
Closes #1330
* Use the ``end_lineno`` attribute for the ``NodeNG.tolineno`` property
when it is available.
Closes #1350
* Add ``is_dataclass`` attribute to ``ClassDef`` nodes.
* Use ``sysconfig`` instead of ``distutils`` to determine the location of
python stdlib files and packages.

Closes #1282
Ref #1103
* Fixed crash with recursion error for inference of class attributes that referenced
the class itself.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#5408
* Fixed crash when trying to infer ``items()`` on the ``__dict__``
attribute of an imported module.
Closes #1085
* Add optional ``NodeNG.position`` attribute.
Used for block nodes to highlight position of keyword(s) and name
in cases where the AST doesn't provide good enough positional information.
E.g. ``nodes.ClassDef``, ``nodes.FunctionDef``.
* Fix ``ClassDef.fromlineno``. For Python < 3.8 the ``lineno`` attribute includes decorators.
``fromlineno`` should return the line of the ``class`` statement itself.
* Performance improvements. Only run expensive decorator functions when
non-default Deprecation warnings are enabled, eg. during a Pytest run.
Closes #1383
What's New in astroid 2.9.3?

was not accessible anymore.
Closes #1325
What's New in astroid 2.9.1?
============================
Release date: 2021-12-31
* ``NodeNG.frame()`` and ``NodeNG.statement()`` will start raising ``ParentMissingError``
instead of ``AttributeError`` in astroid 3.0. This behaviour can already be triggered
by passing ``future=True`` to a ``frame()`` or ``statement()`` call.
* Prefer the module loader get_source() method in AstroidBuilder's
module_build() when possible to avoid assumptions about source
code being available on a filesystem. Otherwise the source cannot
be found and application behavior changes when running within an
embedded hermetic interpreter environment (pyoxidizer, etc.).
* Require Python 3.6.2 to use astroid.
* Removed custom ``distutils`` handling for resolving paths to submodules.
Ref #1321
* Restore custom ``distutils`` handling for resolving paths to submodules.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#5645

* Fix crash if a variable named ``type`` is accessed with an index operator (``[]``)
in a generator expression.
Closes PyCQA/pylint#5461
* Enable inference of dataclass import from marshmallow_dataclass.
This allows the dataclasses brain to recognize dataclasses annotated by marshmallow_dataclass.
* Resolve symlinks in the import path
Fixes inference error when the import path includes symlinks (e.g. Python
installed on macOS via Homebrew).

When these nodes occur in ``Arguments``, ``Keyword`` or ``Comprehension`` nodes these
methods now correctly point to the outer-scope of the ``FunctionDef``,
``ClassDef``, or ``Comprehension``.
* Fix the ``set_local`` function for ``NamedExpr`` nodes.
When these nodes occur in ``Arguments``, ``Keyword``, or ``Comprehension`` nodes these
nodes are now correctly added to the locals of the ``FunctionDef``,
``ClassDef``, or ``Comprehension``.

* The ``is_typing_guard`` and ``is_sys_guard`` functions are deprecated and will
be removed in 3.0.0. They are complex meta-inference functions that are better
suited for pylint. Import them from ``pylint.checkers.utils`` instead
(requires pylint ``2.12``).

attributes
Closes PyCQA/pylint#1932
Closes PyCQA/pylint#2062
Closes PyCQA/pylint#2306
* Removed ``Repr``, ``Exec``, and ``Print`` nodes as the ``ast`` nodes
they represented have been removed with the change to Python 3
* Deprecate ``Ellipsis`` node. It will be removed with the next minor release.
Checkers that already support Python 3.8+ work without issues. It's only
necessary to remove all references to the ``astroid.Ellipsis`` node.
This changes will make development of checkers easier as the resulting tree for Ellipsis
will no longer depend on the python version. **Background**: With Python 3.8 the
``ast.Ellipsis`` node, along with ``ast.Str``, ``ast.Bytes``, ``ast.Num``,
and ``ast.NamedConstant`` were merged into ``ast.Constant``.
* Deprecated ``Index`` and ``ExtSlice`` nodes. They will be removed with the
next minor release. Both are now part of the ``Subscript`` node.
Checkers that already support Python 3.9+ work without issues.
It's only necessary to remove all references to the ``astroid.Index`` and
``astroid.ExtSlice`` nodes. This change will make development of checkers
easier as the resulting tree for ``ast.Subscript`` nodes will no longer
depend on the python version. **Background**: With Python 3.9 ``ast.Index``
and ``ast.ExtSlice`` were merged into the ``ast.Subscript`` node.
* Updated all Match nodes to be internally consistent.
* Add ``Pattern`` base class.
