Version 1.3.25 (In progress)
============================

- Add DohSortList to DOH
- Improve the runtime type system:
+ Speed. Type loading is now O(n log n) instead of O(N^2), which
for large modules is a huge improvement.
+ A whole bunch of functions in swigrun.swg no longer need the
swig_type_list_handle passed to them. The only one left is
TypeQuery. This also makes runtime.swg a lot smaller.
+ Split up swig_type_info structure into two structures
(swig_type_info and swig_cast_info)
+ Store a pointer to a swig_type_info rather than just the type
name string in the linked list of casts. First off, this makes
the guile module a little faster, and second, the
SWIG_TypeClientData() function is faster too.
+ Add the idea of a module into the type system. Before, all the
types were stored in one huge linked list. Now, another level is
added, and the type system stores a linked list of modules, each
of which stores an array of types associated with it.
+ For more information of how the runtime type system now works,
please see Doc/Manual/typemaps.html and Doc/Devel/runtime.txt
- Update all language modules to use the new type system. The changes
to each language module are minor. All languages are now able to
use runtime.swg for external access to the type system. Before
only python and perl did.
- [guile, mzscheme, ocaml, and php4] These languages opened up the
init function inside the .cxx code, and any code in the .swg files
in the init section was inside this function. This was a problem
for swiginit.swg, which needs to be inserted before the SWIG_init
function is opened. Thus I changed these languages to be like
python or perl, where the init function is declared in the .swg
file.
- [Ruby] Instead of moving the init function to the .swg file, I
added a new section initbeforefunc, and then added
%insert(initbeforefunc) "swiginit.swg"
- [MzScheme] Fix enums and fix Examples/Makefile.in so that if
multiple -I arguments are specified in the INCLUDES variable, each
gets a ++ccf.
- [Guile GH] Update Guile GH to use the new type system. See
Doc/Devel/Guile.cxx for how smobs are now used.

[C#] New typemap called 'csconstruct'. The code in this typemaps was previously hard
coded and could not be customised by a user. This typemap contains the code that is
