Porting Extension Modules to Python 3 ************************************* We recommend the following resources for porting extension modules to Python 3: * The Migrating C extensions chapter from *Supporting Python 3: An in- depth guide*, a book on moving from Python 2 to Python 3 in general, guides the reader through porting an extension module. * The Porting guide from the *py3c* project provides opinionated suggestions with supporting code. * The Cython and CFFI libraries offer abstractions over Python's C API. Extensions generally need to be re-written to use one of them, but the library then handles differences between various Python versions and implementations.
