Using Mtime::as In Python

[mrobin604]

Hi there,

I want to do time unit conversion in Maya python, and it seems that the easiest way to do this is with OpenMaya.py and the class MTime. However, when I use the 'as' method like so:

from maya.OpenMaya import MTime

sec = MTime(1,MTime.kSeconds)
print sec.as(MTime.uiUnit())

it gives me a warning:

# :2: Warning: 'as' will become a reserved keyword in Python 2.6

The command does however work. So is there any way around this 'reserved keyword' warning? Either disabling it or changing my syntax would be fine.

I ran the code in the Script Editor and I did not get a warning.
