what's the difference between pylint 'disable' and 'disable-msg'?

I see some code with 

# pylint: disable=W0123

and some has

# pylint: disable-msg=W0123

Are they just synonyms?

Solution

  • disable-msg is deprecated as of pylint 0.21.0. Update it to just "disable" when older versions don't need to be supported anymore.
