| Ullrich fixed bug in operator_dispatcher<op_long>. |
| |
| 2000-11-21 10:00 |
| Changed all class and function names into lower_case. |
| |
| Ullrich updated documentation for operator wrapping. |
| |
| 2000-11-20 10:00 |
| Ullrich renamed ExtensionClass:register_coerce() into |
| ExtensionClass:def_standard_coerce() and made it public |
| |
| Ullrich improved shared_pod_manager. |
| |
| 2000-11-17 15:04 |
| Changed allocation strategy of shared_pod_manager to make it portable. |
| |
| Added pickling support + tests thanks to "Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve" |
| <rwgk@cci.lbl.gov> |
| |
| Added a specialization of Callback<const char*> to prevent unsafe usage. |
| |
| Fixed Ullrich's operator_dispatcher refcount bug |
| |
| Removed const char* return values from virtual functions in tests; that |
| usage was unsafe. |
| |
| Ullrich changed Module::add() so that it steals a reference (fix of refcount bug) |
| |
| Ullrich added operator_dispatcher::create() optimization |
| |
| Ullrich changed design and implementation of TypeObjectBase::enable() (to eliminate low-level |
| code) and added shared_pod_manager optimization. |
| |
| |
| 2000-11-15 12:01 |
| Fixed refcount bugs in operator calls. |
| |
| Added callback_adjust_refcount(PyObject*, Type<T>) to account for different ownership |
| semantics of Callback's return types and Caller's arguments (which both use from_python()) |
| This bug caused refcount errors during operator calls. |
| |
| Moved operator_dispatcher into extclass.cpp |
| Gave it shared ownership of the objects it wraps |
| |
| Introduced sequence points in extension_class_coerce for exception-safety |
| |
| UPPER_CASE_MACRO_NAMES |
| |
| MixedCase template type argument names |
| |
| Changed internal error reporting to use Python exceptions so we don't force the |
| user to link in iostreams code |
| |
| Changed error return value of call_cmp to -1 |
| |
| Moved unwrap_* functions out of operator_dispatcher. This was transitional: when |
| I realized they didn't need to be declared in extclass.h I moved them out, but |
| now that operator_dispatcher itself is in extclass.cpp they could go back in. |
| |
| Numerous formatting tweaks |
| |
| Updated the BoundFunction::create() optimization and enabled it so it could actually be used! |
| |
| 2000-11-15 00:26 |
| |
| Made Ullrich's operators support work with MSVC |
| |
| Cleaned up operators.h such that invalid define_operator<0> is no longer needed. |
| |
| Ullrich created operators.h to support wrapping of C++ operators (including the "__r*__" forms). |
| He added several auxiliary classes to extclass.h and extclass.cpp (most importantly, |
| py::detail::operator_dispatcher and py::operators) |
| |
| 2000-11-13 22:29 |
| |
| removed obsolete ExtensionClassFromPython for good. |
| |
| removed unused class ExtensionType forward declaration |
| |
| 2000-11-12 13:08 |
| |
| Added enum_as_int_converters for easier enum wrapping |
| |
| Introduced new conversion namespace macros: |
| PY_BEGIN_CONVERSION_NAMESPACE, |
| PY_END_CONVERSION_NAMESPACE, |
| PY_CONVERSION |
| |
| callback.h, gen_callback.py: |
| Added call() function so that a regular python function (as opposed to |
| method or other function-as-attribute) can be called. |
| |
| Added newlines for readability. |
| |
| class_wrapper.h: |
| Fixed a bug in add(), which allows non-method class attributes |
| |
| Ullrich has added def_raw for simple varargs and keyword support. |
| |
| Fixed version number check for __MWERKS__ |
| |
| Added tests for enums and non-method class attributes |
| |
| objects.h/objects.cpp: |
| Added py::String operator*= and operator* for repetition |
| |
| Change Dict::items(), keys(), and values() to return a List |
| |
| Added template versions of set_item, etc., methods so that users can optionally |
| use C++ types that have to_python() functions as parameters. |
| |
| Changed various Ptr by-value parameters to const Ptr& |
| |
| |
| ======= Release ======= |
| 2000-11-06 0:22 |
| Lots of documentation updates |
| |
| added 4-argument template constructor to py::Tuple |
| |
| added "add" member function to ClassWrapper<> to allow arbitrary Python |
| objects to be added to an extension class. |
| |
| gen_all.py now generates support for n argument member functions and n+1 |
| argument member functions at the suggestion of "Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve" |
| <rwgk@cci.lbl.gov> |
| |
| Added regression tests and re-ordered declare_base calls to verify that the |
| phantom base class issue is resolved. |
| |
| 2000-11-04 17:35 |
| |
| Integrated Ullrich Koethe's brilliant from_python_experiment for better |
| error-reporting in many cases. |
| |
| extclass.h, gen_extclass.py: |
| removed special-case MSVC code |
| added much commentary |
| removed unused py_copy_to_new_value_holder |
| |
| init_function.h, gen_init_function.py: |
| added missing 'template' keyword on type-dependent template member usage |
| removed special-case MSVC code |
| added much commentary |
| |
| 2000-11-04 0:36 |
| |
| Removed the need for the phantom base class that screwed up inheritance |
| hierarchies, introduced error-prone ordering dependencies, and complexified |
| logic in many places! |
| |
| extclass.h: Added some explanatory comments, removed wasteful m_self member |
| of HeldInstance |
| |
| extclass_demo.cpp: Added #pragmas which allow compilation in ansi strict |
| mode under Metrowerks |
| |
| functions.h: Added virtual_function as part of phantom base class removal; |
| expanded commentary |
| |
| pyptr.h: Added some missing 'typename's and a GCC workaround fix |
| |
| subclass.cpp: Added missing string literal const_cast<>s. |
| |
| 2000-11-03 10:58 |
| |
| Fix friend function instantiation bug caught by Metrowerks (thanks |
| Metrowerks!) |
| |
| Add proof-of-concept for one technique of wrapping function that return a |
| pointer |
| |
| Worked around MSVC optimizer bug by writing to_python(double) and |
| to_python(float) out-of-line |
| |
| 2000-11-02 23:25 |
| |
| Add /Zm200 option to vc6_prj to deal with MSVC resource limitations |
| |
| Remove conflicting /Ot option from vc6_prj release build |
| |
| ======= Release ======= |
| 2000-11-02 17:42 |
| |
| Added a fix for interactions between default virtual function |
| implementations and declare_base(). You still need to write your |
| declare_base() /after/ all member functions have been def()d for the two |
| classes concerned. Many, many thanks to Ullrich Koethe |
| <koethe@informatik.uni-hamburg.de> for all his work on this. |
| |
| Added missing conversions: |
| to_python(float) |
| from_python(const char* const&) |
| from_python(const double&) |
| from_python(const float&) |
| |
| Added a Regression test for a reference-counting bug thanks to Mark Evans |
| (<mark.evans@clarisay.com>) |
| |
| const-ify ClassBase::getattr() |
| |
| Add repr() function to Class<T> |
| |
| Add to_python/from_python conversions for PyPtr<T> |
| |
| Standardize set_item/get_item interfaces (instead of proxies) for Dict and List |
| |
| Add Reprable<> template to newtypes.h |
| |
| Fix a bug wherein the __module__ attribute would be lost for classes that have a |
| default virtual function implementation. |
| |
| Remove extra ';' in module.cpp thanks to "Ralf W. Grosse-Kunstleve" |
| <rwgk@cci.lbl.gov> |
| |
| Fix a bug in the code of example1.html |
