Version 1.3.40 (18 August 2009)
===============================
2009-08-17: olly
[Perl] Add "#undef do_exec" to our clean up of Perl global
namespace pollution.
2009-08-17: olly
[PHP] Fix to wrap a resource returned by __get() in a PHP object (SF#2549217).
2009-08-17: wsfulton
Fix #2797485 After doing a 'make clean', install fails if yodl2man or yodl2html
is not available.
2009-08-16: wsfulton
[Octave] Caught exceptions display the type of the C++ exception instead of the
generic "c++-side threw an exception" message.
2009-08-16: wsfulton
[Java] When %catches is used, fix so that any classes specified in the "throws"
attribute of the "throws" typemap are generated into the Java method's throws clause.
2009-08-16: wsfulton
[C#] Fix exception handling when %catches is used, reported by Juan Manuel Alvarez.
2009-08-15: wsfulton
Fix %template seg fault on some cases of overloading the templated method.
Bug reported by Jan Kupec.
2009-08-15: wsfulton
[Ruby] Add numerous missing wrapped methods for std::vector<bool> specialization
as reported by Youssef Jones.
2009-08-14: wsfulton
[Perl] Add SWIG_ConvertPtrAndOwn() method into the runtime for smart pointer
memory ownership control. shared_ptr support still to be added. Patch from
David Fletcher.
2009-08-14: olly
[PHP] PHP5 now wraps static member variables as documented.
2009-08-14: olly
[PHP] Update the PHP "class" example to work with PHP5 and use
modern wrapping features.
2009-08-13: wsfulton
[PHP] std::vector wrappers overhaul. They no longer require the
specialize_std_vector() macro. Added wrappers for capacity() and reserve().
2009-08-13: wsfulton
[PHP] Add const reference typemaps. const reference primitive types are
now passed by value rather than pointer like the other target languages.
Fixes SF#2524029.
2009-08-08: wsfulton
[Python] More user friendly AttributeError is raised when there are
no constructors generated for the proxy class in the event that the
class is abstract - the error message is now
"No constructor defined - class is abstract" whereas if there are no
public constructors for any other reason and the class is not abstract,
the message remains
"No constructor defined".
[tcl] Similarly for tcl when using -itcl.
2009-08-04: olly
[PHP] Fix generated code to work with PHP 5.3.
2009-08-04: vmiklos
[PHP] Various mathematical functions (which would conflict
with the built-in PHP ones) are now automatically handled by
adding a 'c_' prefix.
2009-08-03: wsfulton
[C#] The std::vector<T> implementation is improved and now uses $typemap such
that the proxy class for T no longer has to be specified in some macros
for correct C# compilation; the following macros are deprecated, where
CSTYPE was the C# type for the C++ class CTYPE:
SWIG_STD_VECTOR_SPECIALIZE_MINIMUM(CSTYPE, CTYPE)
usage should be removed altogether
SWIG_STD_VECTOR_SPECIALIZE(CSTYPE, CTYPE)
should be replaced with:
SWIG_STD_VECTOR_ENHANCED(CTYPE)
Some more details in csharp/std_vector.i
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
2009-07-31: olly
[Python] Fix indentation so that we give a useful error if the
module can't be loaded. Patch from Gaetan Lehmann in SF#2829853.
2009-07-29: wsfulton
Add $typemap(method, typelist) special variable macro. This allows
the contents of a typemap to be inserted within another typemap.
Fully documented in Typemaps.html.
2009-07-29: vmiklos
[PHP] Static member variables are now prefixed with the
class name. This allows static member variables with the
same name in different classes.
2009-07-29: olly
[Python] Add missing locks to std::map wrappers. Patch from
Paul Hampson in SF#2813836.
2009-07-29: olly
[PHP] Fix memory leak in PHP OUTPUT typemaps. Reported by Hitoshi
Amano in SF#2826322.
2009-07-29: olly
[PHP] Fix memory leak in PHP resource destructor for classes
without a destructor and non-class types. Patch from Hitoshi Amano
in SF#2825303.
2009-07-28: olly
[PHP] Update warnings about clashes between identifiers and PHP
keywords and automatic renaming to work with the PHP5 class
wrappers. Fixes SF#1613679.
2009-07-28: vmiklos
[PHP] If a member function is not public but it has a base
which is public, then now a warning is issued and the member
function will be public, as PHP requires this.
2009-07-21: vmiklos
[PHP] Director support added.
2009-07-15: olly
[Perl] Don't specify Perl prototype "()" for a constructor with a
different name to the class, as such constructors can still take
parameters.
2009-07-12: xavier98
[Octave] Add support for Octave 3.2 API
2009-07-05: olly
[PHP] Update the list of PHP keywords - "cfunction" is no longer a
keyword in PHP5 and PHP 5.3 added "goto", "namespace", "__DIR__",
and "__NAMESPACE__".
2009-07-03: olly
[Tcl] To complement USE_TCL_STUBS, add support for USE_TK_STUBS
and SWIG_TCL_STUBS_VERSION. Document all three in the Tcl chapter
of the manual. Based on patch from SF#2810380 by Christian
Gollwitzer.
2009-07-02: vmiklos
[PHP] Added factory.i for PHP, see the li_factory testcase
for more info on how to use it.
2009-07-02: wsfulton
Fix -Wallkw option as reported by Solomon Gibbs.
2009-07-02: wsfulton
Fix syntax error when a nested struct contains a comment containing a * followed
eventually by a /. Regression from 1.3.37, reported by Solomon Gibbs.
2009-07-01: vmiklos
[PHP] Unknown properties are no longer ignored in proxy
classes.
2009-07-01: vmiklos
[PHP] Fixed %newobject behaviour, previously any method
marked with %newobject was handled as a constructor.
2009-06-30: olly
[Ruby] Undefine close and connect macros defined by Ruby API
headers as we don't need them and they can clash with C++ methods
being wrapped. Patch from Vit Ondruch in SF#2814430.
2009-06-26: olly
[Ruby] Fix to handle FIXNUM values greater than MAXINT passed for a
double parameter.
2009-06-24: wsfulton
Fix wrapping methods with default arguments and the compactdefaultargs feature
where a class is passed by value and is assigned a default value. The SwigValueWrapper
template workaround for a missing default constructor is no longer used as the code
generated does not call the default constructor.
2009-06-16: wsfulton
[Java,C#] Fix enum marshalling when %ignore is used on one of the enum items.
Incorrect enum values were being passed to the C++ layer or compilation errors resulted.
2009-06-02: talby
[Perl] Resolved reference.i overload support problem
identified by John Potowsky.
2009-05-26: wsfulton
[C#] Improved std::map wrappers based on patch from Yuval Baror. The C# proxy
now implements System.Collections.Generic.IDictionary<>.
These std:map wrappers have a non-backwards compatible overhaul to make them
like a .NET IDictionary. Some method names have changed as following:
set -> setitem (use this[] property now)
get -> getitem (use this[] property now)
has_key -> ContainsKey
del -> Remove
clear -> Clear
The following macros used for std::map wrappers are deprecated and will no longer work:
specialize_std_map_on_key
specialize_std_map_on_value
specialize_std_map_on_both
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
2009-05-20: vmiklos
[PHP] Add the 'thisown' member to classes. The usage of it
is the same as the Python thisown one: it's 1 by default and
you can set it to 0 if you want to prevent freeing it. (For
example to prevent a double free.)
2009-05-14: bhy
[Python] Fix the wrong pointer value returned by SwigPyObject_repr().
2009-05-13: mutandiz (Mikel Bancroft)
[allegrocl] Minor tweak when wrapping in -nocwrap mode.
2009-05-11: wsfulton
[C#] Improved std::vector wrappers on the C# proxy side from Yuval Baror. These
implement IList<> instead of IEnumerable<> where possible.
2009-04-29: wsfulton
[Java, C#] Add the 'notderived' attribute to the javabase and csbase typemaps.
When this attribute is set, the typemap will not apply to classes that are derived
from a C++ base class, eg
%typemap(csbase, notderived="1") SWIGTYPE "CommonBase"
2009-04-29: olly
[Python] Don't attempt to acquire the GIL in situations where we
know that it will already be locked. This avoids some dead-locks
with mod_python (due to mod_python bugs which are apparently
unlikely to ever be fixed), and results in smaller wrappers which
run a little faster (in tests with Xapian on x86-64 Ubuntu 9.04,
the stripped wrapper library was 11% smaller and ran 2.7% faster).
2009-04-21: wsfulton
[C#] Fix #2753469 - bool &OUTPUT and bool *OUTPUT typemaps initialisation.
2009-04-09: wsfulton
Fix #2746858 - C macro expression using floating point numbers
2009-03-30: olly
[PHP] The default out typemap for char[ANY] now returns the string up to a
zero byte, or the end of the array if there is no zero byte. This
is the same as Python does, and seems more generally useful than
the previous behaviour of returning the whole contents of the array
including any zero bytes. If you want the old behaviour, you can provide
your own typemap to do this:
%typemap(out) char [ANY]
%{
RETVAL_STRINGL($1, $1_dim0, 1);
%}
