Typemap change for templates
The scoping rules around %template have been specified and enforced.
The %template directive for a class template is the equivalent to an
explicit instantiation of a C++ class template. The scope for a valid
%template instantiation is now the same as the scope required for a
valid explicit instantiation of a C++ template. A definition of the
template for the explicit instantiation must be in scope where the
instantiation is declared and must not be enclosed within a different
namespace.
For example, a few %template and explicit instantiations of std::vector
are shown below:
// valid
namespace std {
%template(vin) vector<int>;
template class vector<int>;
}
// valid
using namespace std;
%template(vin) vector<int>;
template class vector<int>;
// valid
using std::vector;
%template(vin) vector<int>;
template class vector<int>;
// ill-formed
namespace unrelated {
using std::vector;
%template(vin) vector<int>;
template class vector<int>;
}
// ill-formed
namespace unrelated {
using namespace std;
%template(vin) vector<int>;
template class vector<int>;
}
// ill-formed
namespace unrelated {
namespace std {
%template(vin) vector<int>;
template class vector<int>;
}
}
// ill-formed
namespace unrelated {
%template(vin) std::vector<int>;
template class std::vector<int>;
}
When the scope is incorrect, an error now occurs such as:
cpp_template_scope.i:34: Error: 'vector' resolves to 'std::vector' and
was incorrectly instantiated in scope 'unrelated' instead of within scope 'std'.
Previously SWIG accepted the ill-formed examples above but this led to
numerous subtle template scope problems especially in the presence of
using declarations and using directives as well as with %feature and %typemap.
Actually, a valid instantiation is one which conforms to the C++03
standard as C++11 made a change to disallow using declarations and
using directives to find a template.
// valid C++03, ill-formed C++11
using std::vector;
template class vector<int>;
Similar fixes for defining classes using forward class references have
also been put in place. For example:
namespace Space1 {
struct A;
}
namespace Space2 {
struct Space1::A {
void x();
}
}
will now error out with:
cpp_class_definition.i:5: Error: 'Space1::A' resolves to 'Space1::A' and
was incorrectly instantiated in scope 'Space2' instead of within scope 'Space1'.
This ensures NotImplemented is returned on error so that the Python
interpreter will handle the operators correctly instead of throwing an
exception. NotImplemented was not being returned for non-builtin wrappers
when the operator overload did not have a function overload.
See PEP 207 and https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#NotImplemented
Mentioned in SF patch #303 and SF bug #1208.
The director c++ exceptions are thrown in a helper method instead of in
the director overloaded method. This circumvents compiler warnings about
throwing exceptions when the method has an exception specification or
noexcept. If the exception is thrown, abort will still be called!
In Java, the "director:noexcept" typemap can be used to do something
else. This typemap should be ported to the other languages too.
With Scilab 6 target specified, identifier names truncation is disabled (no longer necessary)

* tleonhardt-python_threads:
Style fixes for Python threads documentation changes
Finished updating Python docs for -threads option
Started making changes to Python.html to document support for multithreaded Python SWIG applications.
- .travis.yml:
- ppa:kwwette/octaves has Octave version 4.2, also run C++11 tests
- configure.ac:
- prefer Octave program "octave-cli" to "octave"
- extract any -std=* flags from CXX, add to OCTAVE_CXXFLAGS
- Lib/typemaps/fragments.swg:
- SWIG_isfinite_func(): extern "C++" is required as this fragment can
end up inside an extern "C" { } block
- Lib/octave:
- add std_wstring.i (copied from std_string.i) for C++11 tests
- Lib/octave/octrun.swg:
- move Octave version-checking macros to octruntime.swg
- Octave single()/double() functions now call .as_single()/.as_double()
methods; redirect calls to __float__() method as per .scalar_value()
- << and >> operators are no longer supported by Octave
- Lib/octave/octruntime.swg:
- move Octave version-checking macros here for conditional #includes
- #include interpreter.h instead of #toplev.h
- #include call-stack.h (now needed for octave_call_stack)
- unwind_protect is now in octave:: namespace
- error_state and warning_state are deprecated; use try/catch to catch
errors in feval() instead
- always set octave_exit = ::_Exit, to try to prevent segfault on exit
- Lib/octave/octopers.swg:
- << and >> operators are no longer supported by Octave
- Lib/octave/exception.i:
- Add macro SWIG_RETHROW_OCTAVE_EXCEPTIONS which rethrows any
exceptions raised by Octave >= 4.2
- Examples/test-suite/exception_order.i:
- Use macro SWIG_RETHROW_OCTAVE_EXCEPTIONS to rethrow exceptions
raised by error() function in Octave >= 4.2
- Update Doc/Manual/Octave.html and CHANGES.current
Don't advise using "$:", which is for Ruby models, and doesn't include/map to
the directories containing the headers. Advise using rbconfig module instead.
The new instructions are known to work out of the box both under Linux and
macOS.
