Also fixes li_std_vector_enum testcase when run with -threads.
Patch supplied on swig-devel mailing list on 12 Sep with details...
==============================================
I just wanted to mention that I found a crash issue in bug..
I am using SWIG 2.0.11 with python and have –threads enabled. I have a C++ std::vector that I instantiate in SWIG with %template. I also have a method in a class that returns this vector. I also include std_vector.i, btw..
When I iterate like so:
children = Action.getActionList()
for child in children:
pass
Everything is fine..
When I iterate like this:
for child in Action.getActionList()
pass
Product crashes.
The problem is the following. This code gets called first:
SWIGINTERN PyObject *_wrap_delete_SwigPyIterator(PyObject *SWIGUNUSEDPARM(self), PyObject *args) {
PyObject *resultobj = 0;
swig::SwigPyIterator *arg1 = (swig::SwigPyIterator *) 0 ;
void *argp1 = 0 ;
int res1 = 0 ;
PyObject * obj0 = 0 ;
if(!PyArg_UnpackTuple(args,(char *)"delete_SwigPyIterator",1,1,&obj0)) SWIG_fail;
res1 = SWIG_ConvertPtr(obj0, &argp1,SWIGTYPE_p_swig__SwigPyIterator, SWIG_POINTER_DISOWN | 0 );
if (!SWIG_IsOK(res1)) {
SWIG_exception_fail(SWIG_ArgError(res1), "in method '" "delete_SwigPyIterator" "', argument " "1"" of type '" "swig::SwigPyIterator *""'");
}
arg1 = reinterpret_cast< swig::SwigPyIterator * >(argp1);
{
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_ALLOW;
delete arg1;
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_END_ALLOW;
}
resultobj = SWIG_Py_Void();
return resultobj;
fail:
return NULL;
}
Note the SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_ALLOW/END_ALLOW. In between those two statements, we delete arg1. That in turn will eventually end up in this code:
namespace swig {
class SwigPtr_PyObject {
protected:
PyObject *_obj;
public:
… snip! …
~SwigPtr_PyObject()
{
Py_XDECREF(_obj);
}
Uh-oh! We call Py_XDECREF when we aren’t supposed to because we are in a SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_ALLOW/END_ALLOW section!
This takes care of the issue:
namespace swig {
class SwigPtr_PyObject {
protected:
PyObject *_obj;
public:
… snip! …
~SwigPtr_PyObject()
{
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_BEGIN_BLOCK;
Py_XDECREF(_obj);
SWIG_PYTHON_THREAD_END_BLOCK;
}
There are several other methods in this class that use the Python API, but don’t have the BEGIN/END block defined. I’m not sure if they are required for all of them, but I believe they are..
I have attached a modified pyclasses.swg with what I believe are the correct changes. This code is from 2.0.11, but as far as I can tell, it’s the same as what is in 3.0.2…
Apologies for not doing more here (making/running tests, getting it in the code repository, etc..), but I’m under some pressure to get some unrelated things done…
director method - PHP NULL gets returned by the subclassed method
in this case, so the directorout typemap needs to allow that (at
least if an exception is active).
`array_functions(TYPE, NAME)' generates a `new_foo(size)' function that
allocates a new array of the given type. When compiling in C, the array
is initialized with `calloc()', which shows that the intent was to have
the array be zero-initialized. When in C++, however, the array was not
getting initialized, so it could contain random garbage after creation,
when the type was a POD type.
This change makes `new_foo(size)' create a value-initialized array when
in C++, as per the C++ standard's 5.3.4.15 that says that adding a pair
of parentheses at the end of a new-expression does that.

Would it be possible to add the following 2 typedefs to std_ios.i?
typedef basic_ios<char> ios;
typedef basic_ios<wchar_t> wios;
at present, it contains only
%template(ios) basic_ios<char>;
%template(wios) basic_ios<wchar_t>;
This means however that things like std::ios::openmode are currently not
recognised by SWIG. With the above typedefs, they are. Similar typedefs
should probably be added in std_iostream.i for ostream etc.
Also, while checking std_ios.i, it seems that the definition of basic_ios
has a copy-paste error in the private section (the constructor is still as
ios_base). To avoid confusion, I suggest to change that. Below is a diff
with the suggested changes.

Move to construct on first use idiom for singleton definition,
which prevents problems with singletons between ruby swig modules
in an environment with multiple modules on MacOS 10.9 with xcode 5.1.
Before this fix, data was being shared between modules which caused
a crash on shutdown of the ruby interpreter if more than one
module was loaded at a time.
* Renamed SWIG_Lua_equal to SWIG_Lua_class_equal
* If class has no __eq implemented, then default __eq is provided.
Default __eq compares actual pointers stored inside Lua userdata
