The metaclass (SwigPyObjectType) for SWIG objects was not defined in
a way that let importlib successfully import the Python wrappers.
The pickle module failed because it couldn't determine what module the
SWIG wrapped objects are in.
I've changed the definition of SwigPyObjectType using more normal
builtin type definitions. There are still some open questions:
- None of the builtin types, like swig_static_var_getset_descriptor and
SwigPyObject are added into any module. No call to PyModule_AddObject
is made, so isinstance cannot be used for any wrapped type, all of
which are derived from SwigPyObject.
Closes#808
If the wrong return type in the hash function was used, an error:
SystemError: error return without exception set
was raised
Add some tests for testing builtin slots
SWIG-3.0.5 and earlier sometimes truncated text provided in the docstring
feature.
SWIG-3.0.6 gave a 'Line indented less than expected' error instead of
truncating the docstring text.
Now the indentation for the 'docstring' feature is smarter and is
adjusted so that no truncation occurs.
Closes#475
Previously SWIG looked at the indentation of the first line and removed
that many characters from each subsequent line, regardless of what those
characters were. This was made worse because SWIG's preprocessor removes
any whitespace before a '#'. Fixes github issue #379, reported by Joe
Orton.
Default values are no longer generated as Python code by default.
They must be explicitly turned on using the "python:defaultargs" feature.
Closes#294Closes#296
The problems in these two issues when "python:defaultargs" is turned
on still need to be fixed and should be addressed in separate patches.
The important thing is the default code generation is now fixed.
- Examples/Makefile.in rules use SRCDIR as the relative source directory
- ./config.status replicates Examples/ source directory tree in build
directory, and copies each Makefile to build directory, prefixed with
a header which sets SRCDIR to source directory
- Examples/test-suite/.../Makefile.in set SRCDIR from Autoconf-set srcdir
- Examples/test-suite/errors/Makefile.in needs to filter out source
directory from SWIG error messages
- Lua: embedded interpreters are passed location of run-time test
- Python: copy run-time scripts to build directory because of 2to3
conversion; import_packages example copies __init__.py from source
directory; test-suite sets SCRIPTDIR to location of run-time tests
- Javascript: binding.gyp renamed to binding.gyp.in so that $srcdir
can be substituted with SRCDIR; removed './' from require() statements
so that NODE_PATH can be used to point Node.js to build directory
- some of the %.clean rules in the test-suite Makefiles were using a single tab
as an empty rule, dangerous! I've replaced these with the safer '@exit 0'.
Removed obsolete methods from std_map.i and pyiterators.swg.
Added builtin-check target to python test suite Makefile.
Fixed using_namespace_loop.i so that the generated wrappers will compile.

PYTHONPATH needs to include the current directory and not (just) the source
directory as the SWIG-generated files are produced here and not under the
source directory when the top build directory is different from it.
