Version 1.3.20 (In progress)
============================
11/02/2003: mkoeppe (Matthias Koeppe)
Unify the pointer-conversion runtime API. The standard
functions are:
* SWIG_NewPointerObj (POINTER, TYPE, FLAGS)
-- Create an scripting object that represents a typed
pointer. FLAGS are language specific.
* SWIG_ConvertPtr (INPUT, RESULT, TYPE, FLAGS)
-- Get a pointer from the scripting object INPUT and
store it in the place RESULT. When a type mismatch
occurs, return nonzero.
* SWIG_MustGetPtr (INPUT, TYPE, ARGNUM, FLAGS)
-- Get a pointer from the scripting object INPUT and
return it. When a type mismatch occurs, throw an
exception. If ARGNUM > 0, report it as the
argument number that has the type mismatch.
[Guile]: No changes.
[MzScheme]: No changes.
[Perl]: Add the function SWIG_NewPointerObj.
The function SWIG_MakePtr is kept.
The function SWIG_MustGetPtr is currently not
supported.
[Python]: Add the function SWIG_MustGetPtr.
[Ruby]: Add the function SWIG_MustGetPtr.
[Tcl]: Remove the "interp" argument of
SWIG_NewInstanceObj, SWIG_ConvertPtr,
SWIG_ConvertPacked, and SWIG_ConvertPtrFromString.
The function SWIG_MustGetPtr is currently
not supported.
No changes to Pike because its pointer conversion code did
not look complete. No changes to PHP4, because I did not
understand its runtime code. No changes to Chicken
because major changes are expected soon anyway. No
changes to Java, OCaml, C# because they do not seem to
have a pointer-conversion runtime API.
*** INCOMPATIBILITY [Tcl] ***
11/02/2003: mkoeppe (Matthias Koeppe)
[Perl5, PHP4, Pike, Python, Ruby, Tcl]: Use the
preprocessor to rename external functions of the SWIG
runtime API to follow the naming convention
SWIG_<language>_<function>. This should allow linking
more than one interpreter into a program.
10/31/2003: cheetah (William Fulton)
[C#] Fix since introducing the exception and std::string delegates.
The fix overcomes linker errors when using more than one SWIG module.
