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.
The C# type corresponding to size_t may be changed by redefining its "cstype"
type typemap, but this broke compilation of the code using std::vector<> as
the typemap generating it assumed that size_t was always represented by uint
in C#. Make this work in all cases by explicitly looking up cstype of size_t
instead.
Notice that it may be quite useful, and even necessary, to map size_t to int
as when generating C# assembly for use with COM, via .NET interop, as some COM
clients, notably VBA-using ones, including all Microsoft Office applications,
don't support unsigned types and can't call methods using or returning uint in
C# at all.
This fragment needs to depend on StdTraits fragment as it specializes the
template struct traits<> defined there and it could happen that the struct was
not declared before being specialized, resulting in compilation errors in the
generated code.
It doesn't seem to need to depend on stddef.h inclusion, however, so replace
it with the correct dependency instead of keeping both.
- Travis adds external PPAs which contain newer versions of packages
than in baseline trusty. These newer packages prevent some of the
Octave packages in ppa:kwwette/octave, which rely on the older
packages in trusty, from installing. To prevent these kind of
interactions arising, clean out all external PPAs added by Travis
before installing Octave.
"CID 11151 (#3-1 of 3): Using invalid iterator (INVALIDATE_ITERATOR)18.
increment_iterator: Incrementing iterator it though it is already past
the end of its container."
Coverity does not understand 'replace_count', so warns that we may go
past self->end() (or self->rend() I guess).
Fix Coverity issue reported for wrapper argument checking:
"Null-checking args suggests that it may be null, but it has already
been dereferenced on all paths leading to the check."
So 'args' is null checked, but after dereferencing it with
PyTuple_Check(args).
PROBLEM:
There is a small ommission in parser.y, which will lead
to syntax errors in cases when non-empty throw declaration is
followed by `override`, `final` or both. E.g. in cases like:
void finalOverriden() throw(std::exception) final override;
SOLUTION:
- Add a `THROW LPAREN parms RPAREN virt_specifier_seq` to
exception_specification in Source/CParse/parser.y
- Add several methods in test-suite/cpp11_final_override.i
to verify the fix works.
Fix Coverity issue reported for SWIG_Python_ConvertFunctionPtr:
"Execution cannot reach this statement: *ptr = vptr;"
Because if 'ty' is null, then desc becomes null and we return with
SWIG_ERROR. So 'ty' cannot be null at 'if (ty)'.
Fix Coverity issue reported for SWIG_Python_FixMethods:
"buffer_size: Calling strncpy with a source string whose length
(10 chars) is greater than or equal to the size argument (10)
will fail to null-terminate buff."
The issue is only reported for the "swig_ptr: " line, but for
consistency we replace both occurrences of strncpy with memcpy.
