VCF Python SDK 9.1.1 delivers enhanced lifecycle security alignment, updated Python compatibility, and major type-hinting refinements to elevate your developer experience across VMware Cloud Foundation.
✅ Lifecycle Security Alignment: Aligned with Python Software Foundation security standards, supporting Python 3.10 through 3.14 while dropping support for EOL versions to ensure modern, secure environments. ✅ Eliminated Stub Collisions: Standardized stubs (such as ConfigInfo) with fully qualified references to prevent cross-package naming conflicts during static type resolution. ✅ Accurate Method Fault Stubs: Corrected vmodl.MethodFault stubs to properly inherit from both Exception and DynamicData, eliminating strict type-checker warnings on valid attributes. ✅ Cleaned-Up Stubs: Removed ghost vmodl.DataObject and vmodl.ManagedObject classes, restoring precise static analysis and IDE auto-completion.
