Using "sym:name" in the wrapping code is wrong, it is different from "name" if
the function has been renamed and we need to call the original C function, not
whichever name it is exported under.
Using longjmp was incompatible with using C++ objects in the code using the
wrappers, and using this C API from C++ to avoid ABI incompatibilities between
different C++ compilers is one of the main reasons for using this module.
Also, this required using a separate SwigObj instead of just using the real
object pointer which inevitably resulted in memory leaks whenever a non owned
object was returned from anywhere, e.g. from a member accessor or any method
returning pointer or reference.
Abandon the attempts to recreate C++ exceptions in C and just use a very
simple approach allowing to pass an error message out of band after any
function call in a global variable. An alternative could be to add a special
"out" error parameter to each and every function, but this risked being too
verbose, especially for the functions which don't really throw, and the calls
to SWIG_PendingException_get() won't need to be made explicitly when using a
C++ wrapper around the generated C API in the future.
This simplifies both the module and the generated code, in particular we don't
need any runtime code at all any more and there is no need for an extra level
of indirection for every object.
It also makes a couple more tests pass.
At the very least this results in clear error messages when running SWIG if
the symbol is encountered twice instead of errors given only when compiling
the generated code later.
The only remaining use of this attribute is to test for whether we're wrapping
a ctor and it is simpler and more clear to just check the node type directly
in this case.
This attribute was pretty confusing as it was used for parameters and entire
declarations, so removing it makes things more clear and simpler.
There is no need to set c:objstruct for the first parameter of the methods now
that we take care of it for disambiguating between overloads explicitly and
this function doesn't seem to be useful for anything else, simply drop it.
When building the unique suffix for each member of the overloaded functions
set, don't use the first "this" parameter of the object methods in it as it's
the same for all of them and so is completely useless for disambiguation
purposes and just results in unnecessarily long and ugly names.
Use "_const" suffix for the methods differing by their const-ness only, this
is necessary now that we don't use "_pFoo" or "_pcFoo" in their names.
This makes it superfluous to check for c:objstruct in
functionWrapperAppendOverloaded() (and checking for it there was not enough
neither, as the changes in the test suite show, sometimes the "this" parameter
type still found its way into the generated wrappers).
Just use our custom object creation/destruction code, but let the base class
do everything else.
This uncovered complete lack of support for ctors/dtors defined using %extend,
but this is not new and will have to remain broken for now.
SWIG C# can be used to wrap native libraries as common language
interface compatible assemblies.
If you want to use the assemblies with other languages like
Visual Basic these assemblies should comply to the
Common Language Specification (CLS).
Lib/csharp/csharpkw.swg defines rename rules to avoid collisions
with keywords. Unfortunately these rules prepend an underscore.
Parameters starting with underscores are not CLS compliant.
Hence the rules should be changed to append the underscore
instead of prepending it.

Problem: When enum value contains compound expression with a char
constant, the quotes around char constant is missing in the generated
expression. Example:
enum media_type {
YUY2 = ((('2' << 24) | ('Y' << 16)) | ('U' << 8)) | 'Y'
};
The generated C# enum becomes:
public enum media_type {
YUY2 = (((2 << 24)|(Y << 16))|(U << 8))|Y
}
While the correct representation (after this fix) should be:
public enum media_type {
YUY2 = ((('2' << 24)|('Y' << 16))|('U' << 8))|'Y'
}
Causes: the exprcompound promotes the expression type from char to int
and uses $1.val in the generated expression. However $1.val does not
contain the quotes. Since the type is promoted to int, there's no way to
know there's char component in the compound expression.
Solution: in exprcomound, use $1.rawval if $1.type is T_CHAR or T_WCHAR.
The rawval contains quotes which yield correct expression.
The existing typemap was just broken - it correctly created the resource
and then did nothing with it, and instead tried to register the member
pointer as a normal pointer, which is never going to work as it's larger
than a normal pointer.
Add cpp_basic_runme.php as a regression test for this.
It's not been touched since 2006, won't work with modern versions
of the debian packaging tools, and relies on a script which isn't
in git. Debian packaging is maintained in a separate VCS by the
Debian maintainer. Fixes#774, reported by Nico Schlömer.
Default hash is the underlying C/C++ pointer.
This matches up with testing for equivalence (Py_EQ in SwigPyObject_richcompare)
which compares the pointers.
