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
g++-5 errors out with this now with errors such as:
default_constructor_wrap.cxx:665:27: error: use of deleted function ‘FFF::FFF()’
result = (FFF *)new FFF();
^
default_constructor_wrap.cxx:314:7: note: ‘FFF::FFF()’ is implicitly deleted because the default definition would be ill-formed:
class FFF : public F {
^
default_constructor_wrap.cxx:301:4: error: ‘F::~F()’ is private
~F() { }
^
default_constructor_wrap.cxx:314:7: error: within this context
- 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'.
- source files and Makefiles need never be executable
- scripts are run directly by their interpreters in the
test suites, so also do not need to be executable
Ruby 2.0 enforces explicit string encodings. The char_constant
testcase fails because the internal (SWIG_FromCharPtrAndSize, using
rb_str_new) defaults to ASCII-8BIT while the test-suite file defaults
to the current shell LOCALE setting.
This patch sets the char_constant_runme.rb encoding to ASCII-8BIT.
SF Bug#1292 - Runtime fixes for Proc changes in ruby-1.9 when using STL wrappers that override the default predicate, such as:
%template(Map) std::map<swig::LANGUAGE_OBJ, swig::LANGUAGE_OBJ, swig::BinaryPredicate<> >;
Fixes li_std_functors testcases for Ruby 1.9.
Also rb_respond_to return values have changed subtely in 1.9 and return should be treated as a flag instead of checking for Qtrue, see SF Bug #1159.
Also fix li_std_map, li_std_set silently failing - rb_protect behaviour seems to have changed when an exception is thrown, so code has been changed to use rb_rescue. A call to 'rb_set_errinfo(Qnil)' could have solved this after the rb_protect call, but it is only available in 1.9+ and Ruby API changes are not easily and transparently detectable.
