Hack to use the std::array support for boost::array.
Is limited as it currently exposes some 'using' bugs in SWIG.
For example, the type system fails to see that pointers to std::array
and pointers to boost::array are the same.
This approach saves having to maintain separate boost::array support.
The 'using' bug ought to be fixed, otherwise separate boost_array.i
files could be easily made from the std_array.i files.
Setting an STL container wrapper slice better matches the way Ruby
arrays work. The behaviour is now the same as Ruby arrays. The only
exception is the default value used when expanding a container
cannot be nil as this is not a valid type/value for C++ container
elements.
Access via ranges and slices now behave identically to Ruby arrays.
The fixes are mostly for out of range indices and lengths.
- Zero length slice requests return an empty container instead of nil.
- Slices which request a length greater than the size of the container
no longer chop off the last element.
- Ranges which used to return nil now return an empty array when the
the start element is a valid index.
Using negative indexes to set values works the same as Ruby arrays, eg
%template(IntVector) std::vector<int>;
iv = IntVector.new([1,2,3,4])
iv[-4] = 9 # => [1,2,3,9]
iv[-5] = 9 # => IndexError
These work much like any of the other STL containers except Python slicing
is somewhat limited because the array is a fixed size. Only slices of
the full size are supported.
Fix error when append on a SWIG Object with -builtin:
x.append(10)
SystemError: error return without exception set
Having append and next methods on a SWIG object by default doesn't seem
right to me though.
Fix %shared_ptr support for private and protected inheritance.
- Remove unnecessary Warning 520: Derived class 'Derived' of 'Base'
is not similarly marked as a smart pointer
- Do not generate code that attempts to cast up the inheritance chain in the
type system runtime in such cases as it doesn't compile and can't be used.
Remove unnecessary warning 520 for %shared_ptr when the base class is ignored.

Ruby free function declaration change
rb_obj_is_kind_of can no longer be used for type checking as the
smartptr feature type, eg shared_ptr<Derived> cannot be cast to
a smartptr of the base class, eg shared_ptr<Base>.
Previously Derived could be cast to Base as they were in an
inheritance chain and the call to rb_define_class_under() used
SWIGTYPE_p_Base->clientdata for all derived classes.
Now SWIG_TypeCheck is always used.
The functions Swig_typemap_new_scope() and Swig_typemap_pop_scope() introduced
by 503746e964 back in 2000 were never used and
ended up being commented out themselves, but support for typemap scopes still
remain in several other functions. Remove it completely to make the code
simpler without any ill effects.
