| [Python] #1673 #1674 Fix setting 'this' when extending a proxy class with __slots__. |
| |

| [Ruby] #1651 Add std::auto_ptr<> typemaps. |
| |
| 2020-01-31: ZackerySpytz |
| [Python] #1700 More robust error checking for failures in calls to Python C API: |
| PyBytes_AsStringAndSize() and PyString_AsStringAndSize(). |
| |
| 2020-01-31: vadz |
| [Python] #1710 Fix crash parsing empty docstrings. |
| |

| [R] #910 #914 Fix R memory leak on exception. |
| |
| 2020-01-30: richardbeare |
| [R] #1511 Fix bug wrapping functions. These were previously incorrectly wrapped as if |
| they were variables. This happened when 'get' or 'set' was in the name of the function |
| or method, but sometimes also in some other circumstances. If you were using R |
| attribute syntax to access these methods, you'll need to switch to calling them as R |
| methods. |

| are used. |

| |
| 2020-01-14: mcfarljm |
| #1608 Improve doxygen support. |
| - Add support for \param[] commands such as: \param[in]. |
| - Optional arguments are marked as 'optional' in pydoc. |
| - Improve support for \code commands so that other languages are supported as code blocks. |
| Support added for java, c and py. For example Python: \code{.py} ... \endcode |
| - Fix doxygen handling of \em and \p tags for Python. |
| |
| 2020-01-13: wsfulton |
| [Python] #1595 Python -builtin constructors silently ignored keyword arguments. |
| Instead of silenty ignoring them, now a "TypeError: f() takes no keyword arguments" |
| exception is thrown if keyword arguments are used. Hence constructors and normal methods/ |
| functions behave in the same way. Note, -keyword should be used with -builtin to obtain |
| keyword argument support. |

| [Python] #1670 #1696 Add missing field initializers introduced in python 3.8: |
| tp_vectorcall and tp_print. |

| with Windows 64 bit. |

| they are used as part of the scope name of an identifier, such as a namespace name. |
| |
| 2019-11-26: wsfulton |
| [C#] #1628 'out' or 'ref' used in a cstype typemap was not always stripped out in parts |
| of director code generation. |
| |
| 2019-11-01: wsfulton |
| [Python] #1595 Fix bug in support for keyword arguments (kwargs feature or -keyword) |
| when using -builtin. The fix is in the argument error checking when wrapping zero |
| argument constructors only. |
