[jira] [Commented] (SINGA-290) Upgrade to Python 3

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SINGA-290?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16442572#comment-16442572 ] 

wangwei commented on SINGA-290:
-------------------------------

Would SWIG_PYTHON_2_UNICODE ([http://www.swig.org/Doc3.0/Python.html#Python_2_unicode)|http://www.swig.org/Doc3.0/Python.html#Python_2_unicode] be better than SWIG_PYTHON_STRICT_BYTE_CHAR?
 string in python3 are unicode by default.
 string in python2 are then converted via SWIG_PYTHON_2_UNICODE

> Currently SINGA supports Python 2.7, we need to upgrade to Python 3.
> One reason for this upgrade is related to SINGA-274, where new Debian packages are required to use Python 3 according to Debian packaging policy on Python:
