Version 2.0.12 (9 Feb 2014)
===========================

            [PHP] Fix compilation error in ZTS mode (64 bit windows) due to incorrect placement
            of TSRMLS_FETCH() in SWIG_Php_GetModule() as reported by Mark Dawson-Butterworth.

            [Octave] update support to Octave version 3.8.0

            - Octave 3.8.0 no longer defines OCTAVE_API_VERSION_NUMBER, but 3.8.1
              will define OCTAVE_{MAJOR,MINOR,PATCH}_VERSION instead: see
                http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/b6b6e0dc700e
              So we now use a new macro SWIG_OCTAVE_PREREQ(major,minor,patch) to
              enable features requiring Octave version major.minor.patch or later.

              For Octave versions prior to 3.8.1, we reconstruct values for
              OCTAVE_{MAJOR,MINOR,PATCH}_VERSION based on OCTAVE_API_VERSION_NUMBER,
              extracted from Octave's ChangeLogs. An additional hack is needed to
              distinguish between Octave <= 3.2.x and 3.8.0, neither of which define
              OCTAVE_API_VERSION_NUMBER.

            - Octave 3.8.0 deprecates symbol_table::varref(), so remove its use
              for this and future versions of Octave.

            - Octave 3.8.0 removes octave_value::is_real_nd_array(), used in
              octave_swig_type::dims(). Its use is not required here, so remove it.

            - Retested against Octave versions 3.0.5, 3.2.4, 3.4.3, 3.6.4, and 3.8.0.

            - Updated Octave documentation with tested Octave versions, and added a
              warning against using versions <= 3.x.x, which are no longer tested.

            C++11 support for new versions of erase and insert in the STL containers.

            The erase and insert methods in the containers use const_iterator instead
            of iterator in C++11.  There are times when the methods wrapped must match
            the parameters exactly. Specifically when full type information for
            template types is missing or SWIG fails to look up the type correctly,
            for example:

              %include <std_vector.i>
              typedef float Real;
              %template(RealVector) std::vector<Real>;

            SWIG does not find std::vector<Real>::iterator because %template using
            typedefs does not always work and so SWIG doesn't know if the type is
            copyable and so uses SwigValueWrapper<iterator> which does
            not support conversion to another type (const_iterator). This resulted
            in compilation errors when using the C++11 version of the containers.

            Closes #73

            [R] Fix SF #1340 - Visual Studio compile error in C++ wrappers due to #include <exception>
            within extern "C" block.

2013-10-17: wsfulton
            [Python] Fix SF #1345 - Missing #include <stddef.h> for offsetof when using -builtin.

2013-10-12: wsfulton
            [Lua] Apply #92 - missing return statements for SWIG_Lua_add_namespace_details()
            and SWIG_Lua_namespace_register().
